Frequently Asked Questions
What is the purpose of address verification in BGV?
Address verification confirms that a candidate's declared place of residence is accurate and genuine. It helps organisations mitigate the risk of hiring misidentified candidates, maintain regulatory compliance, and screen candidates against criminal records tied to their registered address.
What documents does a candidate need to provide?
Accepted documents include Aadhaar card, utility bills (electricity, water, gas), rental/lease agreements, bank statements, and government-issued ID with address. For Digital Address Verification (DAV), the candidate also captures live GPS location and on-site photos.
How long does address verification take?
Digital Address Verification (DAV) typically completes within 24–48 hours. Physical address verification, which involves a field agent visit, takes 3–7 business days depending on location, candidate availability, and document completeness.
What is Digital Address Verification (DAV)?
DAV is SpringVerify's contactless, GPS-based address verification method. A secure SMS link is sent to the candidate who then captures their real-time GPS location, on-site photos, and proof of address documents — all verified digitally without any field agent visit.
What happens if an identity check fails?
Yes. SpringVerify supports verification of both current and previous residential addresses. For each address, the check includes period of stay, proof of residence documents, and — for physical verification — neighbour confirmation. This is particularly valuable for roles requiring a full residential history or for candidates who have relocated frequently.
When should I choose physical over digital verification?
Physical verification is recommended for high-risk roles (finance, security, senior leadership), candidates in areas with poor mobile connectivity, cases where digital verification returns a discrepancy, or regulated industries with mandatory on-site verification requirements.
