### Streamline Right to Work

**Comply with legal obligations as an employer**  
Verify your candidate’s right to work and visa information before they start work to ensure you’re meeting your legal obligations as an employer.

**Vet foreign nationals working in Australia**  
It could be a criminal offence to employ an illegal worker, so it’s vital to check the work entitlements of non-citizens you want to hire.

**Confirm right to work quickly**  
With fast turnaround times and online results, your onboarding process has never been easier.

### Trusted Right to Work Checks

Our check fulfills the legal Right to Work obligation using a convenient online process that saves you and your candidate time.

**Australian Citizens**: If everything’s a match, the check is done. If it’s not, we contact the candidate to resubmit their details.

**Non-Australian Citizens**: We process the check with the Australian Department of Home Affairs’ Visa Entitlement Verification Online system (VEVO). If VEVO finds a match, the check is done. If it doesn’t, we’ll contact the candidate to indicate we couldn’t verify their working rights and work with them to correct their details.

### FAQs

**What’s an Australian Right to Work Check?**  
An Australian Right to Work Check verifies an individual’s right to work status in Australia, either by confirming they’re 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.

**How long does it take?**  
The average turnaround for an Australian Right to Work Check is 1-7 days.
