When my customer has the `verify-controller-and-business-with-document` link in the **sandbox** and I upload one success document, the customer is verified. I don’t believe this is intended behavior; I would expect the customer link to change to either `verify-with-document` or `verify-business-with-document`. This makes testing difficult.

Hi @george , You’re correct in that it’ll auto-verify the account in sandbox if one of the test documents is uploaded. This is great feedback that we’ll pass along to our product team! Not ideal, but feel free to send myself or @shreya a direct message and we can help approve an individual document to help you test out these various scenarios.
