Right to Work (VEVO) Check

Confirm a candidate’s legal right to work in Australia before they start.

The Right to Work check (VEVO – Visa Entitlement Verification Online) confirms an individual’s visa status and work entitlements directly against the Department of Home Affairs database. It’s a straightforward way to meet your obligations under the Migration Act and avoid the penalties that come with employing someone without the right to work.

The check confirms:

• Current visa status and subclass
• Work rights and any conditions or restrictions
• Visa expiry date
• Whether the individual is an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or visa holder

Results are typically returned within minutes, and the check can be bundled with a police check or run as part of an ongoing onboarding package.
