Photographs
Each photo should include:
the wording 'This is a true likeness of [candidate’s full name]'
the certifier’s details
the certifier’s signature.
We do not accept:
photocopies or faxes of certified copies
certification by a company
certification where the identity of the certifying officer is unclear or illegible
certification made by persons not authorised to certify documents.
Clearly a certifier needs to be legally operating 'within his
jurisdiction' - this is stated at pages 5/6 of the MSA Booklet. If for
example a JP has been authorised in the state of QLD, then that does not
necessarily mean that he is authorised to operate all over the world.

非常感谢，我明天会写邮件去NSW Law Society去确认，应该是没有问题的，因为我老板和我同事他们也经常在海外certify。
再说，这些文件是for the purposes of the skill assessment. 而且authority是ACS，也在澳大利亚。所以Jurisdiction上完全是没有问题的。不过还是感谢你的提醒啦~~~
P.S.已经发邮件去NSW Law Society确认。楼上的提醒真的是非常到位~~~希望我老板他们是对的，因为他们certify的东西都能用。不过为了大家的移民顺利，double confirm也是需要的~~~
你说的是ack邮件里附件IMMI Acknowledgement of Valid Application Received.pdf么？

请问EA的certify一定要是国内的律师或者公证处吗？

Dear Sir,
Thank you for your advice.

example a JP has been authorised in the state of QLD, then that does not
necessarily mean that he is authorised to operate all over the world.
I see no reason why a Chinese licensed lawyer will not be eligible for
certifying documents as copies of the original if they are in China -
but usually such copies take the form of a notarised version done by the
local Notary Office.

意思就是国内律师是可以certify的，是吧？

ACS那里我已经打电话去确认过了，他们接受the documents certified by the Australian Lawyer outside Australia.

EA也回我邮件了，EA的说法是，在境外不行，当文件带回境内certify是可以的，但如果有朋友不是很急的话，我可以带回澳洲certify再邮寄回中国给你们，但是说实话EA也不会去查这个到底是在哪里certify的。下附EA回复：
Dear Mr Cao,
thank you for your enquiry.
We would not accept copies that you have certified in China in your quality of NSW Solicitor as you would be operating outside of your jurisdiction.
However, if you are the holder of a similar Chinese status, then you could certify the copies in China.
Copies certified by yourself in Australia would be suitable. Note however that you would have to see the original document to be able to certify the copies (the original document, not a notarised copy and not a scanned copy of the document that you could receive per email).
