Fast background checks for rideshare and delivery drivers

A VEVO check (Visa Entitlement Verification Online) discloses whether visa holders can provide their work entitlements in Australia. A VEVO check is completed online and will verify the following details:

• Passport Number
• Passport Nationality
• Visa Type (class / subclass)
• Visa Grant Date
• Visa Expiry Date (if applicable)
• Work Entitlement (including any conditions)

It allows visa holders to provide employers, education providers and other organisations the status of their visa conditions.

CVCheck’s Australian VEVO Visa Status & Work Entitlement check will verify that an individual has a right to work in Australia by either:

1. Confirming they’re an Australian citizen or
2. Conducting a VEVO visa check on non-Australian citizens which confirms their visa status directly with the department of Immigration and Border Protection.

The Australian Department of Home Affairs offers an online service where individuals, employers, education providers and other organisations can check visa conditions. This can be accessed here.

CVCheck can perform a wide range of background checks via it’s online platform. So if the company you will be driving for requires you to submit a VEVO check and police check, we offer the convenience of both checks in one package – which can be ordered here. Once your results are ready, you can simply download the VEVO check and police check in a single PDF, then pass it on to the company you will be driving for.

Each rideshare, food delivery and courier service has its own process that drivers must follow in order to submit the results of their background checks. We recommend contacting the company you will be driving for to ensure you submit your results certificates to them correctly.
