Background checks are those checks that are performed upon initial registration of a verification attempt, whether via the regular greenID web services, or the newer Dynamic Forms greenID API. Some of the checks are configured for the greenID account being used, but others, such as drivers licence checks, require additional data, but can still be run in background mode.

- driversLicenceNumber
- driversLicenceState
- driversLicenceExpiryDate
- driversLicenceRTANumber
The first two fields, namely driversLicenceNumber and driversLicenceState are mandatory; if either or both are missing, then the check will not be performed. The driversLicenceExpiryDate field is optional for all states except Western Australian driver's licenses. The driversLicenceRTANumber field is mandatory for NSW drivers licence checks only.
The driversLicenceNumber field is used directly for the check, it is not modified in any way, so it must be provided exactly as it appears on the licence.
The driversLicenceState fields must be one of:
- NSW
- VIC
- ACT
- QLD
- SA
- WA
Any other values are ignored; if a valid state is not present, then a driver's licence check will not be performed.
The driversLicenceExpiryDate field is also used directly for the check, and is not modified in any way. It is expected that it will be a string of the form DD/MM/YYYY. If a valid date is not found, then none will be used, which may cause the check to fail.
The result of the background driver's licence check will be returned in the standard RichVerificationResult element standard RichVerificationResult element returned by the web service call (either the regular greenID web services, or the Dynamic Forms greenID API).
