greenID has a web service method that returns the verification details for an individual. getVerificationResult can be called at any time after a person has been registered to return the current verification details for a person.
Verification results are returned in a complex SOAP type called RichVerificationResult this structure contains information about whether a person has completed their online verification, and if so, whether the verification was successful, and any changes to the original data supplied that were made during the verification process.
