The following information has been received from VETASSESS:
VETASSESS is pleased to announce that, following feedback from our stakeholders, we will be revising the requirements for documents submitted for Skills Assessment for General Professional Occupations to be certified. This has been made possible through ongoing improvements to our internal systems and processes.
Presently, agents and applicants are required to provide certified copies of the following: photograph, proof of identity, change of name, qualification aware certificate, academic transcript, employment evidence, resume/cv, and any other supporting documentation as requested.
As of 1 December 2015, certification of these documents will not be required. Please note, there are no other changes to the evidence required, and we will continue to require high quality colour copies of all evidence submitted for Skills Assessment for General Professional Occupations.
Please note, documentation requirements for Trade Occupations remain unchanged. To check if an occupation is classified as a General Professional Occupation or a Trade Occupation for the purpose of assessment, go to http://www.vetassess.com.au/skills-assessment-for-migration.
