Any system, no matter how reliable – even those in predictable environments – has a failure rate. With primary source verification, there are many factors that lead to being unable to verify, or worse, getting a negative result. What should you do if you have your documents verified and the results are negative (what is now termed as a Discrepancy) or Unable to Verify? Here we will show you how to appeal a negative or unable to verify result.
Don’t panic and get more information!
If you know that the document you have submitted is not altered in any way and that the organization it originated from is still in existence, you have a basis to contest the results of the verification. First of all, let’s clear the misconception that getting an Unable to Verify (UTV) report is really bad. It just simply means that the verification company, in this case – TrueProfile.io, was not able to authenticate the document. It will now depend on the company that you are applying for whether to accept a UTV report. It will all depend on the reason why there was a UTV in the first place.
Get to the root of the problem – what is the cause?
Your final report will contain the reasons why the results were either Discrepancy or UTV. For a Discrepancy, it may be that the document was found altered or fraudulent. In cases of degree verification, it can be that the university was not accredited by a governing body. In UTV cases, there are some organizations where their company policy is to decline to confirm your tenure. For example, you were employed in a company where you signed a confidentiality agreement. They then subsequently declined to confirm that you were ever connected with them. Another example is if our associates are not able to contact the issuing authority. We can’t verify if there is no one to verify from. Another reason is if there are no more existing records of your tenure with them perhaps due to natural disasters or in warzones.

For customers who got their verification from regulators (SCFHS, HAAD, etc.), please see below how to create a ticket.
