Step 6 - The applicant authorizes the report and verifies their identity

When you request the applicant's screening report, an authorization and verification email automatically generates to the tenant at the email address they provided in their application.

The applicant will need to authorize you to view their credit report and answer a few auto-generated identity verification questions provided by TransUnion (our partner credit bureau). For more information on why we do this, take a look at this article.

As soon as they authorize the report, you will be notified. You can then log in to TurboTenant to review their screening report.
