SPU has implemented a new service to execute employment and wage verification requests of former and current employees. These requests are directed to i2Verify, an income and employment verification company which provides immediate access to employment and wage data.
i2Verify Advantages
i2Verify automates the verification process by instantly and securely delivering employment information that requestors such as banks or government agencies rely on to make credit granting or benefit entitlement decisions (mortgages, loans, etc.). The Office of Computer and Information Systems (CIS) has reviewed the data elements and business processes to ensure that i2Verfiy will safeguard sensitive data. i2Verify is PCI compliant and has the necessary measures in place to safely store and protect Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
Clients of i2Verify include lenders, property managers, pre-employment screeners, and social service agencies. Utilizing i2Verify for employment and wage verification will benefit Seattle Pacific University employees and departments in multiple ways:
- By eliminating the need for internal verifications, i2Verify reduces the turnaround time associated with employment or wage verification. A properly credentialed verifier, such as a bank or mortgage company, can now securely access employment verification data at any time at www.i2Verify.com.
- Through the i2Verify employee portal, employees are allowed complete visibility into the verification process. Employees can block access to their data, generate their own reports, or choose to be notified when someone views their data.
- i2Verify’s employment verification process is secure. Not only doesi2Verify validate the identity of all users of its system prior to allowing access to sensitive employee data, but a complete audit trail of every verification is created and then is made available to employees.
- Live support is available during normal business hours by calling 1-888-458-6319.
