This page describes the IDme Verification Status Change data available to colleges via a daily or weekly report or via Superglue delivery.

...

While our current identity verification process strongly encourages students to verify their identity using ID.me at the time they create their OpenCCC account and submit a CCCApply application, it is not required and students still have the option to decline the verification process at the time before they submit their application. When this happens a Null value, or no value, is submitted for the three primary IDme data fields with their application data that is passed to the college. These values are sealed stored with the application data even if the student returns to the IDme verification process verify their identity with ID.me at a later date and completes the process time or if another a status change is made for a different reason due to a change if the student’s account profile (see Understanding Status Changes below).

In order for colleges to track these verification status changes over time, colleges are now able to identify a student’s current IDme verification status and when it changed through several new post-submission IDme status change fields via data can be accessed by the college via a recurring daily or weekly report and/or delivered via through Superglue directly to a designated dedicated staging table (coming November 2024). This additional data will allow colleges to always have the student’s current verification status and support students seeking financial aid and other financial assistance.

...

  • Backfill Report:  The Backfill Report provides a one-time run of every submitted application that includes an IDme Workflow Status Change indicated since IDme was first implemented (Feb 2024) to the date the report is run for the college. Rows on the report will show all rows where the “Current” workflow status <current_idme_workflow_status> is NOT Null (or blank) from the date IDme was implemented system wide (February 2, 2024) to the date/time the report is run for your college.

  • Daily or Weekly Report:  This report also only provides workflow status changes, configured to run/be run on a recurring schedule.  The report will show all IDme Workflow Status change events where the “current” workflow status <current_idme_workflow_status> is NOT Null (or blank) within 24 hours from the previous report for daily reports or within seven days from the previous weekly report.

Status Change Data Fields & Values

In this section:

: Colleges may request access to the IDme Verification Status Change Reports by contacting your Enabling Services College Experience Manager at cems@ccctechcenter.org, or by contacting CCCTC Staff Support directly at staffsupportccctc@openccc.zendesk.com..

IDme Status Change Data via Superglue

In addition to the Status Change Report, IDme verification changes can be delivered via Superglue and the College Adaptor. This data can be requested through the Enabling Services CEMs at cems@ccctechcenter.org.

Understanding Verification Status Changes

IDme workflow status changes happen when there is a change in the student’s verification status, either during the process of submitting a CCCApply application, a change to a student’s account profile, or over time (expires). When a change is identified, an event is triggered which notifies the college through the IDme verification status change fields via the IDme Verification Status Change Report or delivered to the college via Superglue.

  1. The IDme Verification Status Change Report will ONLY include rows where the “current” <idme_workflow_status> value IS NOT Null or equivalent (aka “blank” = “Never Verified”). 

    1. Note: “Latest” <idme_workflow_status> can be null or equivalent (as the change could come from an account profile change to First, Last Name, or DOB)

  2. Changes to the <idme_workflow_status> are stored in the Current IDme Workflow Status field.

Valid status change values are:

  • Never Verified (Blank) to Verified

  • Verified to Unverified

  • Unverified to Verified

  • Unverified to Expired

  • Verified to Expired

  • Staff Verified to Unverified, Verified or Expired

These are the values that are included in the report and delivered via Superglue to the IDme Verification Change Status table (coming in Superglue v.5.1.0 release)

ID Verification Data Fields

There are three data fields that are initially collected during the ID.me ID Verification process and stored with the student’s CCCApply submitted application data:

  • IDme Opt-in Timestamp

  • IDme Confirmation Timestamp

  • IDme Workflow Status

All ID.me data fields, including the status change fields, are documented in the CCCApply Standard & Noncredit Application Data Dictionary (v.2024.5 or higher) .

If the student declines to verify their identity with IDme during the application process, null or no values will be stored in the CCCApply submitted applications database. If they start and/or complete the IDme verification process, a verification status value will be stored with corresponding timestamps. These fields provide the foundation for tracking and understanding IDme Status Change data.

The ID Verification Workflow Status Field

The IDme Workflow Status field indicates the status of the student's IDme identity verification at the time of the student’s OpenCCC account creation. If/when there is a change to that initial verification status, the college is notified by way of the <current_idme_workflow_status> field on Status Change Report or if implemented, direct data delivery via Superglue.

The values for the workflow status field are the same for any of the workflow status fields in the Status Change data.

Never Verified

blank / null

Student has never completed the ID.me verification process.

<current_date> is greater than <minus 365 days> since verification, then update <idme_workflow_status> to "expired".
