A VETASSESS assessment does not expire (as long as VETASSESS is still the gazetted assessing authority for an occupation, and the occupation is still on the Skilled Occupations List). A VETASSESS assessment is valid unless withdrawn.
However, DIAC may request that an updated version of your assessment be supplied with your application. In this case, we can provide a reissue of your assessment.
A reissue is a reprint of your assessment, with the current date. Complete and sign the reissue application (QA03), quoting your file number and send to VETASSESS with the reissue fee of $AUD 27.50.
Files of cases over 3 months old will have to be retrieved from our archive. Allow 4 to 6 weeks for this request to be processed.
Please ensure that you include your current address on the reissue request. Requests will be accepted by post or fax only - emailed or verbal requests will not be accepted.
