3.1.2. Customer Identification VerificationThe USA PATRIOT Act requires member firms to use a customer’s name, address, date of birth, and Social Security number or tax identification number to independently verify the person’s identity. This verification can be done with a government issued photo ID, such as a current driver’s license, a passport, an alien registration card, a green card, or another government-issued identification (a Social Security card is not acceptable). The verification must be done within a reasonable amount of time after opening the account.
The member firm is also required to check if the person is on a known or suspected terrorist list provided by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) . These suspected terrorist lists are called the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) lists. The firm’s identification program is referred to as a Customer Identification Program (CIP) .
These rules are included to detect and deter money laundering and the funding of terrorist organizations.
Records relating to identification verification must be kept at least five years.

I was very apprehensive about the Series 24 exam prior to taking it. Everyone I knew who had taken it informed me that it was an incredibly difficult test, with questions that were meant to trick you. After following Solomon's six week study outline and making flashcards for my weakest areas, I was averaging in the high 80s on the Solomon practice exams. That gave me the confidence I needed to walk into the test center feeling prepared, and the knowledge I needed to walk out of the test center having scored an 88. I am now recommending the Solomon Series 24 materials to everyone at the office!

I stuck to the outline day by day and it really helped me with sticking to a routine and curriculum. I passed the Series 24 on my 1st try! Would definitely recommend this to anyone in the Securities Industry.

I took my Series 24 on July 28 and passed!! I had not passed 2 prior Series 24 exams and was down to my last attempt. A fellow principal on my team who had not passed his Series 24 his first time told me about the Solomon practice tests and how they helped him. It was such a big help for me passing exam as the questions were structured more like the real exam than any other practice tests I’ve taken. I have since gone to other employees at my firm for other tests, such as the Series 7, SIE among others and have told them about the Solomon test materials and some of them are now purchasing Solomon as well.

Just wanted to say
thank you and give you a good review. I actually found that your test questions
were harder than the actual exam and the explanations and the ability to create
tests of all of my wrong answers helped me focus on my weak areas of the exam.
I passed the first time and don't believe I couldn't have done it without your
test bank. Thanks again.

I wanted to let you know I passed the exam [Series 24] this morning! The practice exams were invaluable. Thank you for your extra help and suggestions. I have recommended this to two of my co-workers who will be taking the Series 7 this year. I will say, the 24 was worded so tricky. And so much irrelevant info put into the questions. I had to write down pieces of the question to get the gist of what it was asking. Very purposfully confusing. But it's over and I'm thankful for your product. Thx again
