What to do if you're Under 18?

For WWCC

For all other states other than VIC, you still require a WWCC for paid work even if you are under 18. So please apply for it.

If you're in VIC, and your 18th birthday is coming up within the next 3 weeks, then we would advise you to hold off the onboarding process until you have officially turned 18.

If you are more than a month away from turning 18, and would like to begin work immediately, please refer to this article.

Your KIS App

KIS Academics uses an incredibly secure payment transfer platform called Stripe. It requires that you be 18+ to create an account. 

If you are under 18, you will need to ask your parent and get their permission to use their bank account details to register if you are under 18 years of age. Please follow the steps in this article very carefully.

If you have any other questions, feel free to send a message into #help channel on Slack, or email contact@kisacademics.com
