WA3.5 Applying for a Job Check
- A Job Check application must be made by an accredited employer (as defined at WA2.60.1) whose accreditation is not suspended.
- Applications must be made using the approved online form provided on the INZ website.
- Employers must include evidence demonstrating that they meet the Job Check instructions, including:
- a detailed job description; and
- a proposed employment agreement; and
- if a labour market test is required (WA3.20(a)), evidence of advertising the job.
- A fee must be paid for a Job Check application.
- Multiple jobs may be included in a Job Check application if the following details are the same for all jobs:
- the proposed:
- occupation; and
- location; and
- minimum guaranteed remuneration and maximum remuneration; and
- type of agreement (permanent or fixed term); and
- the minimum qualifications, work experience, skills or other specifications required for the job; and
- the job description; and
- the proposed employment agreement included with the application; and
- if a labour market test is required (WA3.20(a)), the jobs are included in the same set of advertising.
- Despite (e) above, a Job Check may include jobs with different minimum guaranteed remuneration, if the jobs are covered by a capped sector agreement and the employer indicates that some of the jobs should be considered under that agreement.
- When assessing whether a Job Check meets the requirements at (e) above:
- an immigration officer may accept a declaration from the employer or information provided in the Job Check application that confirms that the details are the same for all jobs; and
- an immigration officer may request and review further evidence if they are not satisfied that these requirements are met; and
- despite the requirement to determine applications for temporary entry in accordance with the instructions in effect at the time the application is made (E7.10(a)(ii)), a Job Check application may be determined in accordance with the instructions at (g)(i) and (ii) above if the application was made before 20 November 2024 and has not been decided.
