The Electronic Verification of Vital Events Records (EVVER) system will provide a means to verify information on a birth certificate presented to a jurisdiction DMV by a driver license applicant.
EVVER will allow a jurisdiction DMV to send the details on a birth certificate to the National Association for Public Health Statistics and Information Systems (NAPHSIS).
NAPHSIS is an association of public health officials concerned about vital records and health statistics. NAPHSIS makes vital records available to organizations such as the Social Security Administration (SSA).
NAPHSIS will process the request and route it to the issuing jurisdiction Vital Records Agency which will match these details to their records to verify the data on the birth certificate. The issuing jurisdiction Vital Records Agency responds back to NAPHSIS which processes the response and routes it to the requesting jurisdiction DMV with the results of the searches.
The EVVER system scope is limited to those transactions which occur between the requesting jurisdiction DMV and NAPHSIS.
