ID Verification Status Change Report

The purpose of the ID Verification Status Change Report is to provide colleges with ongoing visibility of their students' ID verification statuses, including status changes, in report format in order to help you monitor financial aid eligibilities and support in-house investigations of application fraud.

Introduction

Beginning July 2024, the CCC Technology Center began integrating the OpenCCC (CCCID) account system with third-party ID verification services, including IDme and the CA DMV to support our colleges with systemwide fraud mitigation and detection. While requiring students to verify their identities is still optional, we immediately began delivering verification information to colleges, including changes to a student’s verification status, to a designated Events table via Superglue.

To provide colleges with an additional level of visibility into student ID verifications and changes, an ID Verification Status Change Report is now available to colleges on a recurring basis (daily, weekly, or monthly) itemizing every new, successful ID verification completed by your students, as well as every change to an existing verification status committed by a student who has ever applied to your college.

 

Requesting the Report

To request the ID Verification Status Change Report, authorized director-level college or district staff must submit a request by email to the CCCTC Staff Support team at staffsupportccctc@openccc.zendesk.com, or by contacting your College Experience Manager (CEM) directly at cems@ccctechcenter.org.

The email should include the name of the authorized staff member, their institution email address, and whether you prefer the daily, weekly, or monthly status change report.

About the Report

Upon request and approval, ID Verification Status Change Reports are delivered via email attachment (CSV file) to the authorized staff member at your college.

  • One-time catch-up/back-fill report: The purpose of the one-time “catch-up” report is to provide colleges with all instances of verification status changes since the initial ID verification service was implemented in July 2024. The report will include a row for every verification status change for every student who has submitted an application to your college since we began collecting verification data in July 2024.

  • Recurring Report: A recurring report may be requested to run daily, weekly, or monthly and emailed to the authorized staff member at your college. The recurring report will include every instance of a verification change during the specified timeframe for students who have submitted an application to your college.

Both reports have the same layout and format, and both reports are run and delivered to an authorized staff member via the CCC Technology Center.

Report Format and Layout

The one-time backfill and the recurring reports have the same format, layout and data. The table below specifies the data columns and values that appear in the report.

Understanding the Status Change Report

A student’s status change notification will only appear on a report if their Current Verification Status has a different or changed value than their Previous Status depending on the report type. In the example below, the Previous Status and Current Verification Status are different, indicating that a field that triggers verification status changes has a new value.

ID Verification Status Change Daily Report

Recurring Report

  • On a Daily report, if a student’s Current Verification Status is different than their previous status from 12:00pm midnight the night before, a notification of the status change will appear on the Daily report delivered to your college.

  • If a previously Verified student’s Current Verification Status at 3:39pm PST becomes Unverified, but re-verifies (becomes Verified) before midnight that same evening, no notification will appear on the daily status change report.
