**What we’re looking for**
- Aboriginality

- Documented verification of Aboriginality.

The Department will accept proof of Aboriginality confirming the following:

- You are an Aboriginal person of Aboriginal descent.
- You identify as being Aboriginal; and
- You are accepted as such by the community in which you live

An acceptable form of documented verification is a “Confirmation of Aboriginality” letter, provided to you by a local Aboriginal organisation that includes a common seal from that organisation.

There are two options for acceptable evidence to confirm identity:
1. Provide a confirmation of Aboriginality form that addresses the criteria. This is in the form of a “Confirmation of Aboriginality” letter, provided to you be a local Aboriginal organisation that includes a common seal from that organisation.

2. Provide two-three (2-3) letters from Aboriginal organisations within the community in which they live/work, which combined address the criteria listed above. This is often a Lands Council or Aboriginal Medical Service — but does not need to be.
