definitely deserves the bump. esp relevant to first-year undergraduate students in 2015.

My application for a TFN is still pending and I have around a week left to accept an offer. If the situation occurs where the TFN doesn't arrive can I still apply for HECS after I have accepted the offer? (UNSW Commerce)

You should have until the 'census date' to submit your TFN.

I believe that's 31 March 2015 but best to contact the uni to check.

I didn't get my TFN before enrolling in uni either (although at usyd) and it was fine with them. I just had to scan and send the document regarding HECS-HELP at a later date.

If anyone has a TFN but has lost it, just check out the website and give them a call. Also make sure to have your passport/drivers license handy as proof of identification. Once you provide all that type of information, they will give it to you, and you are good to go.

Sorry if I'm not supposed to resurrect an old thread, but is this stuff still relevant for people starting uni in 2020?

Yes definitely
