Discover the convenience of Australia’s online visa platform VEVO. Learn how to use a VEVO visa and the importance of a VEVO visa check.
VEVO, full-form Visa Entitlement Verification Online, is an online visa verification process started by the Australian government. It allows visa applicants to check their VEVO visa status online, and visa holders can check their visa details and conditions online. A visa holder can access VEVO using his visa grant number and passport. VEVO records all the immigrants who came to Australia after 1990.
The VEVO system also enables employers to verify whether job applicants have the right to stay and legally work in Australia. By checking a job applicant's visa details and conditions, hiring managers can determine if the applicant is eligible to work in Australia. Failing to conduct a VEVO check on a candidate can cause heavy fines for both the employer and the candidate. Many employers have a mandatory requirement that applicants should provide their visa details while applying for the job.
Using the VEVO system, a visa holder can access only the current visa details and conditions. Information on previous records or new applications is not available. Here are the steps to check your VEVO visa online.
