Challenge Question Sample Answers
"correctAnswers": {
		"1": "C",
		"2": "A",
		"3": "D",
		"4": "E"
	}

There is a time limit of 4 minutes to send the Challenge Question request – containing the correct answers – once you have received the Challenge questions in the response from the Identity Verification API. If you take longer than 4 minutes, you will receive a time out error in the response and you will have to initiate the process again with a new Identity Verification request.
