# Digital Identity & Right To Work

We use the UK's first certified Identity Services Provider (IDSP) to provide digital DBS and Right to Works checks. You can send your candidates an SMS message with a link for them to complete the required identity checks.&#x20;

Once the checks are complete, a full identity profile report is made available in the candidate profile.

Press the![](/files/iMc7Rma3qYrpL7sLSTQH)to display the create digital identity session dialog:

### 1. Check Type

You have the option to create a Right to Work Only, DBS Only or both DBS & RTW checks.

{% hint style="info" %}
We currently support STANDARD DBS checks only.
{% endhint %}

### 2. Session Valid For

The candidate must complete the session within this period. The URL and session will become invalid after this period has elapsed.

Press the![](/files/Yen0ihf0lUGuw3gSClKY)button to create the identity session and send the SMS message to the candidate.

{% hint style="info" %}
**It is important to note that for a digital RTW check, the only documents that can be used are current (not expired) British / Irish passports or an Irish passcard.**
{% endhint %}

The candidate profile will show the current status of the session, including the date and time the session will expire.

You will receive a notification when the candidate completes the session or the session expires.&#x20;

You can then return to the candidate profile RTW/DBS tab to view the result of the session and if available, the full identity profile report.

{% hint style="info" %}
A full list of your ID Sessions are available in the Admin [ID Session Log](/administration/id-session-log.md) area.
{% endhint %}
