FAQs For Government
READ MORE FAQsGovernment ID verification is the process to prove individuals are who they say they are by analyzing and verifying government-issued identity documents, biometrics, including facial scans, third-party data, and more. This ID verification process ensures that those individuals who are applying for government programs, benefits, or services are legitimate.
Government ID verification can be both a digital identity verification process or an in-person verification process, and helps prevent fraud and comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations and requirements.
The ID verification process in government services consists of several steps. First, a government-issued identity document (ID) is collected and analyzed to determine its authenticity. This part of the process analyzes elements including document structure, biographical data, barcode, machine-readable zone, security features, photo zone, signature, and more.
Next, this data is extracted and compared to the individual’s data they provide on an application or form, including personally identifiable information (PII) like name and address. This process can also be completed with mobile identity documents, including mDLs (mobile driver’s licenses).
Finally, the process can also include step-up authentication in the form of biometric authentication, which includes an additional step to take a selfie and use facial recognition technology to match the image with the image on an identity document.
