For step-by-step support and guidance to complete an Australian Federal Police Check, please refer to our User Guide.

Quick Tips before you start your Australian Federal Police check: 

1. International addresses can be included when entering in your address history.

2. The combined identity documents need to equal 100 points. A list of accepted documents can be downloaded from the relevant step in the application. 

3. At least ONE identity document must be a photo identification.

4. If you cannot select ‘Next’ or the ‘Submit Check’ button does not appear, there is still further information required to be completed. If there is missing required information, the outline of the field will be shaded red 

5. If you do not see a green tick when uploading documents, you may need to resize the identity document so that the file size is reduced to be 8MB. 

6. E-signatures are to be as accurate as possible, but we understand there are limitations. You are required to sign in the same format e.g. if your normal signature is John Sample, you must sign as John Sample, not just an initial. Depending on what device you are using, an E-signature may be created using your finger on a touch screen, a stylus, the mouse or whilst holding down the left button and signing via the touchpad.
