Identification
Why is identification needed?
Providing a copy of your ID helps the Administrator confirm identity, avoid delays, and help ensure any approved payment is sent safely to the right person or estate.
Accepted Identification
You are asked to include a clear copy of valid government-issued identification (ID). Photo ID is preferred, if you have it.
The ID should match the information on your claim form. If the name on your ID is different from the name you used as a child or while attending the Île-à-la-Crosse School, you can still submit your claim and list other names you have used.
Accepted types of government-issued ID include:
- Driver’s licence
- Provincial or territorial photo ID card
- Passport
- Métis Citizenship Card
- Inuit Beneficiary Card
- Certificate of Indian Status (CIS) or Secure Certificate of Indian Status (SCIS)
No acceptable ID or no ID
If you are unsure whether your ID will be accepted, or do not have an accepted form of ID, the Administrator can help you review your options.
