How to complete Identity Verification (IDV)? (iOS 📱)
This article outlines the steps to complete IDV.
Follow these steps to complete the process to verify your identity with RSAC.
1. Open the iOS App and tap the hamburger menu on the left to click on Profile & Settings.
2. Click Your Information.
3. Be sure the Name section matches the name on your identification.
- If you’d like to use a preferred name within the community instead of your legal name, update the Preferred Name section. This is how others in the community will see you, but only your official name will be used for identity verification.

-
Place your identity document on a dark, flat surface in a well-lit room.

9. Once ready, click Capture Front and take the picture
10. Once the front of the ID is captured, click Capture Back and take the picture
11. Next, you will need to take a Selfie. To take a successful selfie, follow these steps:
