My RSA interim certificate has expired, can I still get my card?

To get your first competency card you must pass an RSA or RCG course, or both, through an approved training provider. When you complete the course, your provider will give you an interim certificate that allows you to work for the first 90 days while you order and receive your photo competency card.
Take your interim certificate with you to a Service NSW Service Centre, as well as 100 points of ID that are all originals. Note that your personal details on your interim certificate must match your ID – any discrepancies can be fixed at Service NSW. Your photo will be taken and you should receive your NSW photo competency card in four weeks.
You will not be able to work with an expired certificate, but you can still get your photo card from Service NSW. Please do not complete another NSW RSA course.
You can download the digital version of your photo card in the Service NSW app immediately after receiving your photo card receipt.
