Does VETASSESS contact overseas employer for reference?

[Dre in Vic]

Hi all,

 I’m wondering if VETASSESS will contact overseas employer (particularly Vietnam) for employment verification? 
I have contracts, employer letter, payslips from overseas employment. Are those enough? Do they require original copies?

thanks

Of our refences, VETASSESS did call one of them to verify what was written.

I suspect they don't undertake calls for all applications and probably don't call all references in a single application, but they can and will call your employer (or past employer) if they feel they need to (or in fact just want to)

Yep ... I'd agree with that.
