Hey @TonyZ,
Yes, usually when you apply for a TFN, and you already have one we'll reissue your TFN notification letter. Generally, our service standard is 28 days but if you're not in Australia it may take longer to receive. Need to account for international postage.
If your concerned that you haven't received it yet check out our other ways of finding your TFN.
