NDVerify interfaces with ND Vital Statistics to provide verification of the date of birth, date of death, citizenship, and relationship for individuals in the household for whom the search was initiated, regardless of age.
When the results are received, each match will be ranked based on the accuracy of the data:
- Rank ‘A’ appears when the client’s last name, first name and date of birth, or last name and date of birth match exactly.
- Rank ‘B’ appears when the birth date, first 3 characters of the last name and first 2 characters of the first name match.
If the results are inconsistent with what the household has provided, the household needs to be referred to the Vital Statistics Office at the North Dakota Department of Health. Workers should not say what information does not match, but inform the applicant or recipient it cannot be verified and that the individual needs to contact the Vital Statistics Office to obtain a certified copy.
Data received as a result of this search is owned by the Vital Statistics Office at the North Dakota Department of Health. This information:
- MUST NOT be released to any agency or individual (including the applicant or recipient), even with the individual’s signed release.
- CAN be used for administration of the program which includes appeals and IPV’s.
