Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, but only with strong alternative evidence. VETASSESS allows statutory declarations, coworker statements, and supporting documents. We help structure these correctly to avoid assessment delays or rejection.
Very strict — even if your job title matches, your day-to-day duties must reflect the ANZSCO task list. A mismatch can lead to an “unsuitable” outcome. We help rewrite employment summaries to align with your nominated occupation.
Possibly. VETASSESS compares your qualification to the AQF level and field of study. If unrelated, additional employment years may be required, or the application may shift to a different assessment pathway. We help you understand comparability before lodging.
You may be offered a chance to re-attempt or complete a technical interview depending on the trade. We help you understand the technical expectations and prepare for the practical test so you are assessment-ready.
Yes — but you must provide alternative evidence such as supervisor references, payslips, project records, or statutory declarations. We help ensure evidence is compliant and verifiable.
Deduction years depend on the qualification level, relevance, and employment period. Incorrect qualification–occupation alignment often results in higher deductions. We help analyse your qualification outcome before your EOI strategy is set.
Yes — if VETASSESS cannot verify employment, the assessment is paused or marked unsuitable. We help prepare employers and provide guidance to reduce verification issues and maintain your PR timeline.
