Which term describes when a member provides unverifiable identification documents?

Unverifiable identification documents leave you with not enough verifiable data to confirm who the customer is. In the Bank Secrecy Act context, this is described as insufficient information for identity verification. The CIP requires reliable, verifiable identification, so when the documents cannot be verified, you cannot complete the identity check and must request additional, verifiable information or escalate the review. The other options describe different situations—changing IDs, reluctance to provide ID, or normal, verifiable activity—rather than the lack of verifiable information itself.
