To be eligible for our US tours, members needs to be a US citizen living in the US and be able to provide five types of contact information to verify identity, contact info, and shipping address:

1. State-Issued Photo ID: We need a picture of your driver’s license or other qualified ID with photo and that reflects your home/shipping address. Alternative address verification options are available if your ID does not match your current address, just ask for or propose an alternative.
2. Phone Bill: We need to verify your phone number and address with a photo of a current phone bill showing your name, phone number, and address which matches your ID.
3. Email Address: We will be managing the tours through email which requires an email that you can respond to within 24 hours.
4. Employment Verification or Equivalent: We need simplified employment verification such as employer name, address, and phone – or an alternative if not employed as a backup to verify identity. This info will remain private and will not be used except for emergencies.
5. Social Media Profile: We need a link to your Facebook, LinkedIn, or Instagram profile or equivalent alternative as additional ID verification.

Verification: This information must be emailed to billb@ClearDiff.com and be verified before your name will be added to the participant list. Those with less than two years of Head-Fi membership and under 300 posts may be subject to additional verification. This verification process makes you eligible for all other tours as well as seen in our announcement thread.
