How to verify your identity

There are six steps to verify your identity in your ISED account:

1. Sign in to your ISED account
2. Click your name in the top right corner
3. Select “update” in the profile box
4. Click on “get started” under the yellow exclamation mark
5. Verify your identity using one of three methods:
   • Interac banking sign-in – supports identity verification through BMO, CIBC, Desjardins, RBC, Scotiabank, TD
   • Interac document verification – requires photo of ID (passport or driver’s licence) and a selfie
   • In-person at Canada Post outlet – requires government-issued photo ID and proof of address (if not part of your government-issued photo ID)
6. Once verified, your ISED account is automatically updated
