Not activating after getting all checkmarks at selfie portion of enrollment

  • Make sure not wearing any glasses or mask
  • If drastic change in hair color or facial hair since original photo contact DMV to update
  • Drastic weight gain/loss will cause error for activation

ERROR: Proctor ID NOT ACTIVATED OR NOT VERIFIED

Here are some possible reasons for this to occur:

  • You are using out-of-state credential.
  • Your current resident state credential is inactive, including expired or suspended.
  • Some information on your license is incorrect or out of date - for example, last name or address.
  • Your selfie failed to match the photo on file with the state. If the photo on your license is over 5 years old or drastically different from your current appearance, this could cause an error to occur.

ERROR: ISSUES WITH CAPTURING SELFIE

Here are some tips that will help with capturing the selfie:

  • It is easier if you prop the phone up, lean it against something on either a table, counter or bookshelf making sure it is eye-level to you
  • If you are wearing glasses, please take them off before re-attempting the selfie
  • Make sure you are in a well-lit area, not backlit by a window or strong light, and in front of a neutral or plain backdrop such as a single-color wall.
  • Hold the phone approximately 16 inches from your face. Not quite arm's length.
  • Make sure your phone is kept steady at eye level and only move your head in the direction of the 3 dots. Keep your head steady at each dot until the bubble fills up and the next numbered dot appears.
  • If the selfie times out, you may have taken too long to align the 3 dots and need to start over.
  • "Photo does not match" - This means your facial 1:1 comparison failed. You can try to capture a new selfie. If that does not resolve the issue, then you will need to contact your state authority.

Here are some of the reasons why text verification failed:

  • Make sure you delete all previous texts received from the app off your phone before requesting for a new text with link.
  • (ANDROID USERS ONLY) Check your Android settings as described below in the 'ERROR: "This site can't be reached" message on Android when confirming phone number' topic.
  • You selected "Don't Allow" when prompted to give the app access to camera. Instead, please make sure that you consent and acknowledge reading the terms of use, security policy, provide access to the camera and accept app notifications. You must select OK from the permission pop-up or you will not be able to use the app.
  • You did not receive a confirmation SMS text message because SMS text has not been set up with your service provider. The app requires you to receive a confirmation and URL via SMS text. You will need to reach out to the service provider to verify it is set up.
  • You are copying the URL in the text message into a browser. Instead, you must click on the link in the most recent text message so that it opens in the app. If you have tried requesting the setup SMS text several times, it will be the one at the bottom of the list.

I AM HAVING TROUBLE SCANNING THE QR CODE

To make sure the problem is related to the Proctor ID app and not your device or how you might be trying to scan the QR code, you can try to scan a test QR code located here prior to contacting IDEMIA Support. The test QR code is a simple QR code for a URL that points to another page on this site.

If you are able to successfully scan it, please go ahead and contact IDEMIA Support about your original QR code scanning problem.

However, if you are not able to scan the test QR code, then the issue might be with your device or with how you are attempting to scan the QR codes (e.g., holding the device at the wrong angle or too far or too close during scanning).
