Once you’ve submitted your request via a Konfir Respond landing page, most employment or income verifications are completed within minutes - depending on the applicant’s consent.
What affects the turnaround time?
The verification process begins immediately after you submit your request. The key variable is whether and how quickly the applicant gives their consent.
Here’s what the typical timeline looks like:
Step | Timing |
You submit the request via Konfir | Instant |
Applicant is notified by email/SMS | Instant |
Applicant gives consent & connects data | 2-5 minutes (av.) |
Konfir completes the verification and sends it to you | Instant |
What can delay a reference?
Delays are rare, but may happen if:
The applicant is slow to respond or misses the email
The applicant declines or doesn’t complete the consent process
The data sources are temporarily unavailable (e.g. bank login issue)
If this happens, you’ll be notified via your Konfir account. You can also contact [email protected] for support.
Tip: Let the applicant know in advance that you’ve requested a reference via Konfir. This improves response times and reduces confusion.
