<h4><span> Step 4: </span>Check if you are eligible for credit</h4>

<h4><span> Step 5: </span>Prepare supporting documentation</h4>
<p>Do you need to include official documentation with your application? If so, it may need verification as a true and accurate copy. Check below to see if your documents need to be verified.</p>
<h4>Verify your documents</h4>
<p>If you are an international applicant, you can submit scanned verified copies or scanned original copies of all your official documentation, except for the courses listed below.</p>
<p>The following information explains if your documents do need to be verified. This is important, as documents not correctly verified as a "true and accurate" copy will result in delays in the processing of your application and its consideration for admission. Please don't send originals as we don't return documents.</p>
<h4>Who can verify copies for you?</h4>
<p><strong>For international documents/qualifications:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>your employed agent submitting your application and documents on your behalf</li>
<li>Australian Embassy official</li>
<li>High Commission or Trade Mission official</li>
<li>Public Notary</li>
<li>Australian Justice of the Peace with a registration number.</li>
</ul>
<h4>How should the authorised officer verify each document?</h4>
<p>On each page you are submitting, they must write:</p>

<p>Then sign and print the following details:</p>
<ul>
<li>name</li>
<li>address</li>
<li>business hours telephone number</li>
<li>profession, occupation or organisation</li>
<li>the current date.</li>
