Step 1: Check the request
Open the screening invitation and confirm the requester and rental on Verify your identity.
Step 2: Provide your own details
Complete the identity fields in the secure form. The provider name is shown on the page; enter sensitive information there, not in a message to the landlord.
Step 3: Review your authorization
Read FCRA Disclosure and Summary of My Rights. Review the authorization, then use Type your full name to sign and the displayed submit action when ready.
Step 4: Check what remains
Identity details saved confirms that step. Required payment and provider processing may still remain before results are available.
Why you complete this yourself
You review the requested screening and authorize it using your own details. The landlord can review returned report information but cannot sign or answer identity requirements for you.
If the request cannot continue
For a missing invitation, expired link or identity error, contact the leasing team with the request reference and exact message. Do not start a duplicate paid request to bypass verification.
Check the result
- You understand the authorization and can identify any remaining screening requirement.
FAQs
Does a finished application authorize every report?
Application and screening states are separate. Review the authorization required for the current request.
Can the landlord skip identity verification?
No. Complete the required identity and consent steps yourself; landlord payment does not replace them.
