What a permanent address check confirms

Most candidates in India carry two addresses: the one they live at for work and the family address printed on their identity documents. A current-address check settles the first and says nothing about the second. This check confirms the family home exists, that the candidate belongs to it, and that the address on their documents is real.

Permanent address as found

The address as it exists on the ground, compared against what the candidate declared and what their documents show.

Family confirmation

A family member or long-term resident confirms the candidate belongs to the address.

Person met

Who answered and their relationship to the candidate, named in the report.

Duration of residence

How long the family has lived there, as stated at the address.

Owned or rented

The occupancy status as stated at the address. This is not a title search.

Coordinates and photographs

Latitude, longitude and images of the premises and landmark, annexed to the finding.

Sources. An associate from the GVS field network at the permanent address, the person met there, and the address recorded on the candidate's identity documents. Where the permanent and current address are the same, one visit covers both and the report says so.

How it works

Five steps. A field check takes longer than a database lookup because someone has to stand at the door.

  1. 01 Address confirmed with the candidate We take the permanent address from the candidate and cross-check it against the address on their identity documents.
  2. 02 Associate assigned An associate covering that pincode picks up the visit.
  3. 03 Visit made The associate goes to the address and speaks to whoever answers.
  4. 04 Evidence recorded Person met, relationship, duration of family residence, occupancy status, coordinates and photographs.
  5. 05 Quality check and report The visit record is audited before the finding is published to your dashboard.

Questions we get asked

Why check the permanent address separately from the current one?
Because they are usually different. Most candidates in India live near work and keep a family address on their identity documents. A current-address visit confirms the rented flat and tells you nothing about the address on the Aadhaar record.
Who confirms the address if the candidate does not live there?
A family member or a long-term resident at the address. The report names them and states their relationship to the candidate, so you can judge the confirmation for yourself.
What if the permanent and current address are the same?
Then one visit covers it and we say so. You are not billed twice for the same doorstep.
Does this check ownership of the property?
It records what is stated at the address, owned or rented, and how long the family has been there. It is not a title search and we do not present it as one.
What comes back in the report?
The address as found, the person met and their relationship, the duration of family residence, geo-coordinates and photographs of the premises. All annexed to the finding.
