Can You Update or Correct Details After Submitting a VETASSESS Application?

It is a big milestone to submit your VETASSESS skill assessment after gathering documents, checking requirements, and reviewing your experience. But what if you find an error or want to change something after submission? Such a situation, which is quite common, is that you can fix or update your details in most cases. You just have to know the time and the way of doing it. 

Requesting an Update or Correction 

VETASSESS can be contacted by you via the online application portal or email. Your subject lines should be clear, like "Request to Update Submitted Application," and should contain your reference number. 

When communicating your change, you need to have: 

●     Your full name and application reference number. 

●     A brief, polite explanation of the change. 

●     The correct or updated documents in PDF format. 

●     Anything that supports your correction (like a letter or pay slip). 

You need to provide such an explanation so that the assessor can quickly review your request. If the change to your file is substantial, for example, additional work experience or qualifications, the company may require more evidence or an updated employment statement. 

When You Can’t Make Changes?

You are not permitted to make changes or add any information to the same application once your VETASSESS skills assessment is completed and closed. Any major modification after the closure will have to be treated as a new application or reassessment. The reasoning behind this is to be fair to all the applicants and keep the process consistent. 

So, you must double-check everything about you, i.e., your personal details, work experience, substantiating documents, etc., before you make the submission. It’s a way of saving time and avoiding potential delays. 

How to Make Sure Your Communication is Clear and Timely?

You need to use brief and respectful language when speaking with VETASSESS. And you can do this by telling them what is wrong and why it is important for your assessment. You can also ensure that your update is handled smoothly by maintaining regular, professional communication. 

If you are waiting for the result of your assessment, be sure to look at your emails frequently. There are some things that VETASSESS might need to explain to you. One method to guarantee that your VETASSESS skill assessment proceeds uninterrupted is to respond immediately.
