100 Points of Identification

2004_0118Image0002.JPG (90567 bytes) 

    
   
Am I who I say I am? 
    You can make sure...

 

Australia ’s Financial Transaction Reports Act 1988 awards different values to different forms of identification. It requires a score of at least 100 for acceptable proof of identification. 

SeniorSitters have adapted this system for use as a comprehensive identity check to protect both Homeowners and Housesitters.

The aim is to score 100 points with a combination of identifying documents, as follows:

70 Points (one only)

  • Birth Certificate

  • Citizenship Certificate

  • Passport

Plus…

25 Points Each

  • Driver’s Licence (with current address and photo)

  • Identification card for a government employee (with photo)

  • Name, address and telephone number verified from a current telephone directory, and telephone contact with Sitter at that number

  • Credit card (one only)

  • Medicare card in name of Sitter

  • Telephone account, council rates notice or utility account

  • Seniors Card or Centrelink card (not both)

  • Foreign photo ID (Driver’s licence, National ID card, etc.)

Plus...

  • National Police Certificate (issued within past 12 months)
