    You will need to wait till the money settles. That will take up to 5 working days.

    Your PPS number is used to monitor tax implications for the Revenue.

    PPS is a legal requirement for tax monitoring.

    As others mentioned, you will have to wait for the draft to clear, also there might be notice required to make a withdraw depending of which type of account you have.
