The Cockatoo and Silvan post offices are one of over 120 post offices to have received a digital upgrade as Australia Post rolls out new services across Victoria.
The upgrade is being billed as providing ‘one stop shops’ for digital identity services such as tax file number applications, identity photos, land title ID checks, working with children checks and more.
Overseeing the roll-out is Roger Revere, State Manager for Victoria, who said many were delighted to see more Victorian customers with access to these services.
“Previously, all of these applications had to be done in hard copy,” Mr Revere said.
“For example, customers would have to bring their own photos with them or arrange a separate appointment to have their pictures taken.
“This meant longer processing times for some customers and it was less convenient.
“We think that local Dandenong Ranges residents will be really pleased at how quickly and securely they can get things done with this digital upgrade.”
