# New BILL risk verification decision status

We have introduced `PENDING` as a new BILL risk verification `decision` status for your organization.

As a BILL partner, when you create an organization and then create a user for that organization, it is important that you initiate risk verification with `POST /v3/risk-verifications`. ​​In the API response, the BILL risk verification `decision` status can now have one of five values.

| Value     | Description                                                                                                                                                       |
