Why some registries are not screened yet
- The registry blocks automated access
- The registry's website turns away automated lookups. We don't work around that, so for now your staff search it themselves.
- The registry's terms forbid automated searches
- The registry's terms, or the law behind it, rule out automated or third-party searches, so ezOIG doesn't run them.
- Requires an employer account
- Searches go through the employer's own account with the agency, so ezOIG doesn't run them for you.
- Not open to the public
- The agency doesn't publish it. Only the agency, or employers it authorizes, can check it.
- Paid access
- The agency charges for access, and ezOIG doesn't include it yet.
