A Job Ready MSIC lets you complete your identity check and AusCheck background check before you have a maritime job.

Three steps, most of them completed well before you have an employer.
1. Apply and verify
Complete the same online MSIC application and pay the same fee, then verify your identity at a participating Australia Post outlet, exactly as any applicant does.
2. Background check clears
ClientView lodges your application with AusCheck the same day. Your identity and background checks complete in advance, before you need them.
3. Card issued on hire
The moment your new employer confirms your operational need for a maritime security zone, ClientView updates your application and issues your card, usually straight away.

Students and trainees
Finishing a maritime course? Apply before you graduate so you are ready for placement.
Contractors between roles
Keep your clearance current so you can take the next assignment without waiting on a new background check.
