ByPass Verification Using Notarized Documents

Overview​

1Kosmos enables community/helpdesk administrators to add an affidavit to a user’s web wallet allowing them to become IAL2 certified users without the need to physically scan their documents. Affidavit in 1Kosmos is a declaration made by the administrators certifying the authenticity of another user's passport (PPT), Driving License (DL), or SSN. The administrator who creates the affidavit assumes responsibility for verifying the accuracy of the document. However, only administrators with the following permissions are authorized to add the affidavit.

  • user.affidavit.add
