Common Mistakes to Avoid

Starting too early

Proceeding before checking the relevant authority, professional category and individual profile.

Using a generic checklist

Assuming one route has identical requirements to every authority and profession.

Incomplete readiness

Moving forward without clear document, experience or professional-history context.

Verification assumptions

Assuming a DataFlow or PSV route, outcome or transfer option without checking the case.

Assessment assumptions

Assuming an exam, evaluation or interview result before independent authority review.

Automatic-outcome assumptions

Assuming approval, a fixed timeline or a particular licensing outcome.
