Documents Required for Primary Source Verification

Overview

The documents required for a DataFlow Primary Source Verification (PSV) application depend on the regulator, organization, country, and verification package selected.

Commonly Required Documents

Applicants are generally required to provide clear and readable copies of:

• Passport

• Educational degrees

• Professional qualifications

• Academic transcripts

• Employment certificates

• Professional or health licenses

• Good Standing Certificates, where applicable

• Name change certificate, if the name on the submitted documents differs from the passport

Document Quality Requirements

Documents should be:

• Complete

• Clear and readable

• Uncut

• Accurate

• Submitted in the format requested during the application

Incomplete or unclear documents may result in additional requirements and can delay the verification process.

What If Additional Documents Are Required?

Some issuing authorities may request additional documents or information before they can complete the verification.

If additional information is required, a DataFlow representative may contact the applicant with further instructions.

Do I Need to Submit Physical Documents?

DataFlow generally does not require translated or physical copies of documents for the PSV application. However, a recruiter, regulator, or other organization may have separate requirements.

Applicants should therefore check the requirements of the organization or regulator they are applying to.
