Qualifications

Qualification documents

Start with the qualification, issuing institution, country and purpose. Upload only the records requested for your private case.

A verification report records source confirmations and unresolved evidence. A comparative assessment is separate and needs an approved method and agreed purpose.

  • Readable certificate or award document, including every relevant page
  • Transcript or official academic record where requested
  • Accurate institution, qualification and study details, with any name differences explained
  • The receiving organisation’s instructions and your scoped source-enquiry permission
Qualifications

Prior learning evidence

An assessment considers supported learning against a named subject and level benchmark. Employment duration alone does not establish an academic level.

An IQVS assessment is its own reviewed opinion; it does not award a university degree or guarantee credit or acceptance.

  • Academic certificates, transcripts and relevant module descriptions
  • Roles and dates, supported by employer or other authenticated evidence where needed
  • Relevant work samples and reflection on learning and its application
  • The destination, purpose, recipient requirements and necessary source-contact authority
  • Remove unrelated personal or confidential information from work samples
Translation

Translation checklist

IQVS reviews the document and language pair before confirming the service scope and delivery. A language being listed does not guarantee availability or acceptance by a recipient.

  • Specify the source and target language for each document
  • Include all relevant reverse sides, seals and stamps
  • Name the intended recipient and country, with current translation instructions
  • Provide required name spellings, certification wording, formatting and deadline
Investigations

Prepare an investigation brief

Start by describing the question and information already available. Lawful sources, scope and any bespoke quote are agreed before research proceeds.

Investigation reports stay within the private case and authorised delivery route. Public case studies need a separate confidentiality, accuracy and anonymisation review.

  • The question, relevant country and intended use of the findings
  • The company, property, vehicle or other subject identifiers needed
  • Your role and lawful authority, including relevant permissions
  • The deadline, known facts and records you are entitled to provide
Qualifications

Country and recipient requirements

Acceptance is decided by the receiving organisation. An IQVS verification or advisory assessment does not replace a route that specifically requires WES, Ecctis or another designated provider.

Direct delivery needs a confirmed route and scoped applicant authority. Sending a report does not itself prove that the recipient accepts it.

  • Identify the destination country and precise purpose
  • Name the receiving university, employer, evaluator or authority
  • Check its current accepted providers, report type and submission route
  • Record the recipient reference and authority to share the specified result
Work & rent

Right to Work requests

Provide the purpose-specific work share code, matching date of birth and employer or checking-party context privately. The official response determines the conditions and any follow-up.

Employers retain prescribed identity matching, checking, evidence retention and follow-up duties. An IQVS support report alone does not establish a statutory excuse.

Work & rent

Right to Rent requests

Provide the purpose-specific rent share code, date of birth and requested landlord or authorised-agent context in the private application. The actual government result determines restrictions and follow-up requirements.

Landlords retain the prescribed duties unless an appropriate written agency arrangement transfers the relevant checking responsibilities. Identity comparison, evidence retention and follow-up remain part of the applicable process.

Reports & copies

Digital reports and QR codes

Released digital results are available in the relevant private application. Each issued result has its own reference and QR tied to that report.

A QR confirms historical issued-report information. It does not prove current or permanent work or rent entitlement. Private source documents are not automatically disclosed through it.

  • Retrieve the released PDF from your account
  • Use the QR on the actual issued report for its verification record
  • Share only the result authorised for the intended recipient
Reports & copies

Optional printed copies

Where offered, an optional printed issued-report set can be selected for the application. It starts unticked. Confirm its printing and postage charge and delivery address before accepting the order.

Digital completion and postal dispatch are tracked separately. The recorded dispatch details follow the actual posting of the issued report set.

  • UK printing and postage: £10
  • Other destinations: £18
  • Retain the digital result and report reference in your account
Organisations

Organisation accounts and invitations

The organisation and authorised signatory are reviewed before the digital agreement and business access. Applying does not grant credit or place an order.

Under the accepted agreement, approved members can invite up to 50 applicants at a time using CSV. Every invitation needs its own documented authority reference; each applicant has their own account and separate case.

Organisation status access requires separate applicant authority. Private documents and reports are not automatically shared. Monthly billing requires approved finite credit terms and acceptance by the authorised owner.

Privacy & data

ICO registration and personal data

IQVS LTD is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) for data protection, effective from 3 October 2026. The registration concerns our responsibilities as an organisation processing personal data.

Provide information relevant to the requested service. Source enquiries and report delivery follow the authority for the particular case. Private case files are separate from public QR verification.

The Privacy Notice explains purposes, lawful bases, providers, transfers, retention and applicable rights. Contact privacy@iqvs.co.uk about your information.

Professional & legal

Check a professional register

Choose the profession and place of practice. Search by the full name and registration number, then read the status and conditions shown by the official register. Keep the source and date with your findings.

Professional-body membership and a regulatory register have different purposes. For an IQVS investigation, identify the professional, location and fact you need established so the scope and authority can be reviewed.

Professional & legal

Find official court forms

The receiving court’s own site provides the current form and filing instructions. Check the latest version and the jurisdiction before using it.

Federal forms do not cover every provincial, territorial or state proceeding. Use a suitably authorised legal professional for help choosing a procedure or completing a legal document.
