having been met so long as such fees are duly settled per the terms of the invoice issued.
The JFSC reserves the right to vary or determine commercial settlement periods for invoices based on
operating procedures in place at any given time.
It should be noted that application fees are for considering an application, not necessarily granting it.
If an application does not progress to the point of issue any application fee may still be due and will
therefore be invoiced.
