Hey all, it's been awhile since the last time I browsed this topic.

May consider returning to Australia later (still contemplating and subject to arrangements/approval made by my current employer in Malaysia) as I am offered with a SkillSelect invitation. Therefore those who have successfully applied, hope you wouldn't mind me asking:

1. Is it necessary to provide birth certificate under "Documents to Show Identity" in that PR SkillSelect application since I've included passport as my attachment?
2. Who do you normally seek for to certify scanned copies of your documents?

Thanks.

Ah... thanks for your replies. . Trying to delay the direct grant if possible. Apart from Birth certificate, since we have IC and Driver's License here in Malaysia, is it compulsory that I have to declare them as well during my visa lodgement? If that's the case, that means they require translation as I noted that all of them are in BM unfortunately.

Hi guys, came across that I need to apply for AFP National Police Clearance. My given name is e.g. Ying Lai (just like any other chinese names with a space) and the system does not accept that as it only accepts one word in the given name. Have you guys encountered similar experiences and do you have any advice on that? Should I only include the first word of my given name (Ying) or join them altogether (Ying-Lai or YingLai).

Thanks for your reply .Have looked through the website, it seems like they only entertain queries after application is being made. Was wondering if you could recall how was your name displayed in the Australian Police Certificate, probably I could get rough idea from there.

No worries, and thanks to both of you. I guess I'll proceed with using hihihehe's approach.
