Application status

Contractor applications may move through draft, submitted, under review, verified, or another status requiring a decision or action. The contractor portal shows the current status available to the account.

Verification questions

Is verification automatic when the forms are complete?

No. Completing forms does not by itself grant verified status. Required checks and review must also be completed.

Is the TruGrade Verified Seal the same as a letter grade?

No. The TruGrade Verified Seal confirms verification status. A TruGrade Letter Grade is a separate product with additional track-record requirements.

Can a verification become inactive?

Yes. The online verification record is authoritative, and a credential may become inactive when its requirements are no longer satisfied.
