# What is "Self Accredited" ?

## "Self Accredited" is used if you are asking the investor somewhere in the process if they are accredited or not. This just means that the investor believes that they are accredited.

"Self Accredited" is used if you are asking the investor somewhere in the process if they are accredited or not. This just means that the investor believes that they are accredited. The investor isn't considered a verified accredited investor until the status is "Verified Accredited." The "Pending" status on an AI request means that the request is pending North Capital's review. You will receive a status update once the reviewer has determined whether there is enough information provided to approve the accreditation or not.
