Traditional Owner Status
If you’re living interstate, you need to provide proof that you’re a Traditional Owner of Country in Victoria to enrol. You’ll be asked to nominate an organisation that can help provide this verification. This may be a formally recognised Traditional Owner corporation or the First Nations Legal Service, who hold extensive genealogical data.
We’ll contact the organisation on your behalf. You may be asked to provide further details (like family names etc) to help support your application. If you’re unable to be verified by one of these organisations, please contact us via 1800 TREATY (1800 873 289)
