If you are in Australia as a student or visitor, you will have been issued an Australia VISA. This would have come in the form of a letter, receipt or some written form of advice from the Australian Government confirming the terms of your VISA status. In this case, you will need to enter your personal details exactly as they appear on your VISA notification instead of on your passport.

For example, if your name is Neville James Allen, but your VISA notification only lists Neville J Allen – then you should enter Neville J Allen as your personal details into the USI system along with your passport details including your passport number. This should allow you to successfully create your USI. If you continue to have issues, please contact your trainer or Allens Training directly.

The USI website has a minimum requirement for what your password must contain in order for it to securely protect your records. In order to create a valid password, it must either be:

1. At least nine (9) characters long and contain three (3) of the following character sets:

  • Lowercase letters a-z  
  • Uppercase letters A-Z   
  • Numbers 0-9    
  • Special characters (!,@,#,$,%,^,&,*)

For example: P4j6k&24Y

2. OR a minimum of 12 characters from one character set.

For example: aeobgujkwtsrt
