What evidence do I need to provide?

Your claim and the evidence supplied will be reviewed by the Official Assignee (or the Supervisor) to ensure that it is a provable debt or a debt that is capable of being included in the insolvent estate and able to share in any distribution made out of the insolvent estate.

You will need to provide a copy of the documentation that shows a debt existed at the date of adjudication, liquidation or the date of entering the SIO.   This may include, but is not limited to, copies of loan agreements, bank statements, court orders, invoices, receipts and acknowledgements of debt.

Please ensure that the evidence provided supports the amount you have entered in your claim.  Ideally, the amount shown as outstanding in your evidence should match the amount that you have listed in your claim.

Please also be aware that you are not permitted to add interest or penalties to the debt after the date of adjudication, liquidation or the date of entering the SIO.  What you are owed at the date of adjudication, liquidation or the date of entering the SIO is all that you are entitled to claim.

Providing evidence of the nature outlined above will avoid delaying the administration of the insolvent estate and any distribution made to creditors.

If you are not able to provide evidence that confirms the existence and/or the amount of a debt that is owed, then it is possible that you will not be able to share in any distribution made out of the estate.
