Submit a Claim
We rely on our users to identify and document supercentenarians, ensuring their legacy is known to the world. If you know someone that is 110+, let us know and we’ll begin our validation process to add them to our database.
Claim Submission
Our Submission Criteria
01
Claim Submission
We are interested in investigating all claims, but our resources limit us to only tracking people aged 105+.
02
One Document
We require at least one document from the person’s early, mid, or late life to verify their birth date.
03
Born After 1800
We do investigate claims pre-1800s, but have a much easier time verifying documents from the 19th century and onward.
Our Validation Process
The process differs slightly depending on the supercentenarian, but this outlines our basic validation process.
1. Document Verification
Once we receive a supercentenarian’s documents, we will contact family members or notaries for validation.
2. Additional Documentation
We may ask for additional documents directly from the family, especially if any fields are missing from the submission form.
3. Friend & Family Interview
A researcher will reach out on behalf of LongeviQuest to ask for more details including bios and photos to give context to submitted documents.
4. Validation Report
The researcher will write a validation report for final verification from the LongeviQuest team before the profile goes live on our website.
