Use the same referencing checklist for every applicant
The problem
Inconsistent checks are unfair and risk discrimination claims. Using the same checklist for every applicant is fairer and easier.
What AI does
AI drafts one tick-box referencing checklist you can use for every applicant, so checks are consistent and fair. In England, Right to Rent checks follow GOV.UK, and data protection guidance from the ICO applies to what you collect.
Time
The steps, in short
- Have AI draft a single checklist for all applicants.
- Ask every applicant to agree to the checks in writing.
- Follow the official GOV.UK Right to Rent guidance (England).
- Store documents securely, record your decision, and delete data you no longer need.
A short sample prompt
