In OpenCRVS, authorised users can review the data submitted in the declaration form, side by side with the supporting documents to ensure that it is accurate before the vital event is registered. If the information is correct, the Registrar can go on to register the vital event; if it is not correct, it can be sent for updates. In the case where a Registrar has an assistant to conduct initial checks, the Registration Agent can review a declaration and subsequently send it for approval to the Registrar.
