I think RAAUS pulled the pin on being an issuing body when the ID proofing requirements came in.
$256 to renew? **** that’s a lot of beer money - time to put my consultation rates up.
Shop around, you might find it cheaper with another IB.

But if you have to go to Auspost for the ID check then it will be even more outrageously expensive.
