How Virginia Occupational Therapy Assistant license verification works

A Occupational Therapy Assistant in Virginia is licensed by the VA Occupational Therapy Board. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: license_number name occupation status issued expires address public_information.

Board note: VA-DHP: Virginia Interactive license lookup; GET /Lookup/Detail/<10-digit no.> direct, name search POST per occupation; no DOB; 'Additional Public Information' flags enforcement documents (never auto-fail). Primary source per the page.

What a Occupational Therapy Assistant license check returns

Field check	Passes when
`license_number`	Equal to the board's number, ignoring prefix and leading zeros
`name`	Last name or declared alias matches; first name exact or nickname
`license_type`	The record is a Occupational Therapy Assistant license, strictly (no near-miss types)
`status`	The board shows an active status; probation is active with a flag
`expires`	Expiration is on or after today, where the board publishes it
`disciplinary_actions`	Recorded and flagged with any order documents; never silently dropped

Verdicts: verified, discrepancy, not_found, unable_to_verify (with a reason), pending. See how verdicts are decided.

OT Licensure Compact and multistate Occupational Therapy Assistant licenses

Occupational Therapy Assistant licenses can carry a multistate privilege under the OT Licensure Compact. When the Virginia record shows a multistate license, the result includes multistate: true and the privilege states. Privilege status is confirmed at the compact's own lookup, never inferred.
