19th June 2024Inquiry About Accreditation and T Number Process for DG Application
Good day, Team HWSETA.
I hope this email finds you well.
My name is Yolanda, and I am writing to you on behalf of Ocean Innovations Pty Ltd. We are interested in applying for the Discretionary Grant (DG) and would like to understand more about the accreditation process with HWSETA.
Specifically, we would like to know:
Does HWSETA prioritize companies that are already paying levies?
What are the detailed steps we need to follow to obtain a T number, as required on the portal?
We are eager to ensure our company meets all necessary requirements and aligns with HWSETA’s standards. Any guidance or documentation you can provide to help us in this process would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and assistance. We look forward to your response.
Best regards,
