MUFJ Nisa application taking time?

[Paddy]

Hi all,

Pretty simple question. I applied for NISA with my bank (MUFJ) about 6 weeks ago. I got an auto reply to say they would be checking with tax office and would let me know if/when approved. Any idea how long this might normally be expected to take?

Cheers

When we got it done for our kids a few years back, we had to make an appointment and go down to a MUFG branch to do the paper work for their new bank and JNISA accounts, the taxman approval came around 3 weeks later, the on-line access was granted as soon as the taxman approvals came through.

I just decided to have a look in the MUFJ iOS app to see if there were any alerts etc. re the NISA application and it seems like it is actually active. Pretty strange that I never got an email to say it was setup …

Anyway, now just need to navigate all the various checkboxes and options to see if I can actually make a purchase.

Cheers
