Required information

Once your email is verified, you'll be guided through providing your personal information. This information must match exactly what appears on your identity documents.

Personal information:

  • Full legal name:

    • First name (also called given name)

    • Middle name(s) if you have them

    • Family name (also called surname or last name)

    • Enter names exactly as they appear on your identity documents

  • Date of birth:

    • Day, month, and year. You can click on the calendar to also select if that is easier

    • Must match your identity documents

  • Contact details:

    • Mobile phone number (for important notifications)

    • Email address (already verified)

  • Current residential address: Once you start typing then your address will come up

    • Street number and name

    • Suburb

    • State

    • Postcode

    • Country (Australia)

Regulatory information:

  • Tax File Number (TFN) - if required by your service provider

  • Citizenship status - your Australian citizenship or visa status

  • Country of birth

  • Nationality

Important tips for accuracy

Why accuracy matters:

  • VerifiMe checks your information against government databases

  • Mismatches may cause verification to fail

  • You may need to re-enter information and start verification again

Best practices:

  • Have your identity documents in front of you while entering information

  • Copy names exactly as they appear, including punctuation and spacing

  • Double-check dates before submitting

  • Use your current residential address, not a PO Box
