You must have legal guardianship of the minor, and they must be under the age of 18.
If they are 18+ years old or have recently turned 18 years old, they must create their own Vax Verify account. If they are under the age of 18, the legal guardian can add the child/minor/dependent to their Vax Verify profile.
The household feature uses the registered user’s address to access the records of children/minors/dependents within their household. The immunization history provided by a child's/minor's/dependent’s healthcare provider would have to be associated to the registered user's address.
No, the individual must be 18+ as one of the criteria to pass identity proofing.
No, anyone 18 years of age or older will need to request their record. Minors must have a parent/guardian request their record using the Immunization Record Request and follow the instructions on the form.

It is recommended you use your residential address to register as this will provide the best opportunity to successfully complete the Experian Identify Verification process. While you can use a work address, it will reduce the chance of successfully completing the Experian Identify Verification process.
Due to regulations and the need to keep the individual’s immunization data private, the Vax verify portal uses an Experian Identity Verification process during the initial Account Activation to confirm the registered user's identity.
No, residents do NOT need to remove a consumer freeze from their credit with Experian to complete the Identity Verification process.
No, the Identity Verification process utilizes a "soft inquiry." Soft Inquiries are visible only to you, the consumer, and will have no impact on your credit report, history, or score.
Not necessarily. The Identity Verification process utilizes more than your credit history. The core credentials you provide are validated against a variety of identity data sources. These data sources include both credit and non-credit sources.
Providing your Social Security Number (SSN) is optional. However, providing an SSN may improve Experian’s ability to confirm your identity. Your SSN is NOT stored in the system if you choose to provide it.
Experian uses your SSN (if you provided it) and the information you provided when you registered to attempt to identify you. If you got this message, Experion couldn’t continue the identity verification because it couldn’t identify you or there was an issue with your credit score.
Experian utilizes the information you provided during registration, your SSN (if you provided your SSN), and the answers to the questions to provide an identity verification. Experian then provides us with a level of confidence score. This score depends on the information you provided and several factors that may exist in your credit report. If you received this message, it indicates that Experian couldn’t identify you with the required confidence score or a condition existing on your credit report prevents them from continuing the identity verification process.
Many factors can prevent a resident from accessing their immunization data. All immunization data comes from the IDPH I-CARE system using the First Name, Last Name, Date of Birth, and address provided during registration. You will not be able to access your immunization data via the Vax Verify portal if your healthcare provider submitted different information than you. In this case, you need to submit an Immunization Record Request and follow the instructions on the form.
All vaccines administered in Illinois are entered in I-CARE by the provider. Your record can be incomplete if:
Most adult childhood immunizations are not recorded in I-CARE since most providers were not mandated to report those vaccinations, and I-CARE was not in use before 2007.
