Add all adult occupiers, including people not named on the agreement. Use the applicable official checking process for each person, without discrimination based on nationality.
Open Tenants & tenancies →Carry out the actual check
Use the appropriate Home Office online, permitted manual or eligible digital route. The CRM records the outcome and evidence; it does not verify immigration status or perform the official check.
Open Compliance →Save evidence securely
Open the Right to Rent record form, choose the property and occupier, record the route, actual check date, checker, result and evidence. Upload copies/results privately; these records are restricted from landlords.
Open Compliance →Track follow-up
Record follow-up deadlines for time-limited rights and add a task. Review official guidance on timing and retention for the person’s circumstances.
