Australia Right To Work Check

A Right to Work (RTW) Check verifies an individual's right to work status in Australia, either by; confirming they are an Australian citizen, or 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, matching database results to 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, flagging discrepancies where necessary.
