Dealing with infringements and statements of account past 72 hours of receipt
Posted by brianchu82 on May 23, 2023 at 6:10 pmHi everyone,
This might be a rather novice question but I’m sure some of us who are new to this forum are facing the case where they have statements of accounts or infringement notices that are more than 72 hours since you received it.
My question is how do we deal with these? I know that Mark suggested drawing a red box with “Received” and dating it within three days of you drafting a letter and sending it.
The alternative is to write a letter apologising for the lateness and thereby the apology counts as resetting the clock to negotiate the contract once again.
Did I understand this correctly?
Thank you for your help. This is the step I am quite stuck over because I have been spending time understanding how everything works and getting my head around it all.
God bless,
Brian

What I do is just make the date up but making sure my response is within the 72hours received date. So if I receive a letter on a Monday I send my response on say that Thursday but put the received date at that Wednesday. Only if they send something by registered post is this any issue.
The way I see it they don’t play by the rules so why should I

I just read also in Module 10 – 10 Ways to Discharge a Liability that you can write a cover letter apologising for the lateness and bring you back to an honourable position.

You can do that also but what I do is have a demand notice ready so you can reply straight away

You’re experienced in this. I joined this group three months ago and still getting my head around how it all works.

Yes but it’s not easy mate, it takes time to comprehend it all. I just watched the webinars and took loads of notes.
I also download anything that is on this site and read it to really understand it all.
It takes energy and guts to take on the system so be prepared for a lot of push back by them. Yes you might be legally and lawfully in the right but they all work together to break you.

I know that the government is tight on finances and struggling to cover their own liabilities. Hence the various departments and agencies are now tightening the screw on all of us by changing the tax rules on corporations to make them pay taxes ahead of time, issue more traffic fines and basically being absolutely feral.
The good news is that they’re feeling the heat more than many of us. The bad news is that we have to stand our ground and know how to play the game.
It’s good though there’s a lot more of us to use up their time and we can run rings around them.
Right now I’m dealing with the ATO from my public corporation. I want to make sure that I get the process right so I won’t be in trouble on that front because I’ve put a lot of effort on that business. Hence these novice questions.
Thanks a lot for your help!
God bless,
Brian

Hi guys
(also a novice question, haha)
To start with, Happy New Year!! 😃
Cover letter Example, or link to examples
I was hoping someone may be able to share an example of a cover letter that I can reference to apologize for receiving the statement of account late? as well as ask them to pass the BOE and document to the correct party or notify me of who the correct party is, just incase I have sent to, and addressed the wrong person or department. “office found” may not be sufficient when actually sending the payment instrument (“BOE”) to the correct payee. Mark mentions it does need to go to the correct department.
Any example cover letter I could reference to learn the layout and wording would be great, it doesn’t have to be relevant to my exact questions, as it is just for my understanding of how a cover letter is written when accompanying the type of documents I’m sending.From my understanding I can put together a cover letter with the following:
– My details on the right
– Their details on the left, with a date
– Re: Infringement details and numbers for reference
– Address the chief financial officer by name– Title the document “Cover letter”? (Any other suggestions, this sounds a bit basic)
– Add “office found” under the title of the document?
– By (signature), name and all rights reserved at the end
” – Order of placement in documents to send – I’m guessing the cover letter would be the first document, after the certificate of mailing?
The modules contain the processes and documents, but not so much cover letters as it is an optional add on depending on whether it is needed or not.
I couldn’t seem to find one but if any one has noticed a cover letter example in the Modules 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, 17, 36, 43, 56, 69, PP1, please let me know.Thanks

Here’s an example cover letter for an affidavit from the Common Law aficionado Alex in Australia
