Skills Recognition (RPL)

Please note: We assess applications on a case-by-case basis. Processing times can vary for a range of reasons, including:

  • whether you have submitted an application with all necessary supporting documents. If more documents are requested, the processing days will reset to zero.
  • the quality of documents submitted. Documents hard to read will incur into re-submission.
  • how quickly you respond to requests for more information.
  • how long it takes us to perform the required checks.

Processing times are also impacted by cases that are complex and changes to the volume of applications. Please allow up to 3 weeks to receive your report.
