FAQs
An Australian Right to Work (RTW) Check verifies an individual’s right to work status in Australia, either by confirming they are an Australian citizen, or by running a visa check through the Department of Home Affairs’ Visa Entitlement Verification Online (VEVO) service. The latter includes a search of the VEVO database for visa details pertaining to the candidate being screened and matching results to the candidate documentation provided. A RTW Check result will include the type of visa the individual holds, the visa grant and expiry date (if applicable), and any work conditions or restrictions that may apply.
