You can roll the LMI on top of the original loan amount up to 100% LVR. With the stamp duty i have never seen it rolled on top of the original loan amount.

Joseph12 replied to the topic Are you allowed to repay some principle on an IO loan? in the forum Finance 16 years, 9 months ago

Extra funds can be withdrawn out of the loan up to original loan amount borrowed.This is a general answer and its highly recommend you consult your lender or professional financial advisor in regards to your individual circumstances/loan as noted above.
