Bank account verification for foreign passport holders
Making it easier to verify your identity online so you can get to work or study sooner.
What is it?
Thousands of Victorians can’t use standard ID options like an Australian driver licence or Medicare card. Bank account verification is an easy online alternative that saves time and money on manual paper forms.
It’s secure, private, and convenient. Use it for services such as the NDIS Worker Screening Check or National Police Check.
