Assurance

I think date of birth might be the only thing about a person that can't 
change.

I can tell you from a record duplication prevention point of view that date 
of birth is the most statistically significant of the data elements listed 
below to correctly match a record to the right person.  don't often respond 
the this list, but this is one thing I do know! :)

Subject: [Assurance] Silver registration records and DOB

Hello,

4.2.2.3 of the IAP version 1.1 "REGISTRATION RECORDS" includes

"The record of the facts of registration shall include:
- Identity proofing document types and issuers;
- Full name as shown on the documents;
- Date of birth;
- Current Address of Record"

What is the rationale for including date of birth?

I ask because, as a science virtual organization (LIGO) and not a campus, we 
have no pre-existing relationship with our users that includes the need for a 
date of birth.

Thanks,

Scott
