Identification
Full legal name, alternate names, date of birth, and government ID type to match identity verification checks and payer records.

Organizations that interact with Spanish-speaking clients in the U.S. commonly use this form.
Use the form when Spanish is the client’s primary language or when regulatory disclosures must be provided in Spanish.
