Same issue, I do not have a UK passport but I have lived in the UK for more than 5 years and still live here. I have reached out to your agents and their answer is "there is nothing they can do about it."
Is this a way for upwork to discriminate against people who live legally in a different country than the country they are a citizen in? Also, do you have any plans to solve this? As I have sent in my ID and a proof of my address and it was still "nothing to be done about it because this is out of scope of their support."
I would very much appreciate a proper answers.
Thank you.

Hi,
I'm a Croatian citizen living in the UK, I can provide bank statements as proof of address (and Croatian ID and/or passport). Please have someone from the support team contact me as-well to assist me in the location verification process.
Thank you.
Kind regards

Hi,
I am a norwegian citizen living in the UK (Glasgow, Scotland), so I don't have a british passport OR a driver's licence.
Is there anyway of verifying without these documents?
Best,

Hiya there!
I have just joined Upwork, and I am not very sure that I know how this location thing works...
I am spanish but been living in Glasgow (UK) for almost 3 years, unfortunately that is not time enough to apply for the citizenship and therefore I don´t have an UK passport and my driving license is spanish...So it seems impossible for me to apply to any of the UK jobs I´ve been seeing...is there any alternative solution to this?
I can provide proof of address or my Nin as well, please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
M.

Hi,
Like other members in this thread, I live in the UK but I don't have a British passport or driver's licence to get verified. I have dual citizenship (French and British) so I could provide a British Citizenship Certificate, French ID or proof of address (NIN, etc.).
Would it please be possible to be verified without the required documents?
Many thanks,
Charlotte
