On 15 May 2020 CPVV introduced a temporary medical self-assessment process for driver accreditation applicants in support of the Government’s management of COVID-19. The CPVV medical self-assessment was designed in-line with the Austroads Assessing Fitness to Drive: commercial driver medical standards.
The standards clearly identify conditions that may require medical assessment. Any applicant who has provided information to CPVV that they have one of these conditions has been notified that their application is currently on hold.
As of the 1 December 2020, applicants who have identified a medical condition will be asked to provide CPVV with a medical report to progress their application.
In the meantime, you may wish to contact the CPVV Customer Service on 1800 638 802 to seek advice about what type of medical assessment will be required to progress your application. This would allow you to make an appointment with the appropriate medical professional and prepare the documentation to upload as soon as CPVV informs you this is possible.
