Location Selection Expanding to UK Clients

[Emma O]

Hello, 

I have the same problem as the above. I'm a UK resident but with Swedish citizenship, don't have a UK drivers license etc. Can someone please assist me with verifying my identity so I can submit proposals in the UK?

We'll have one of our agents reach out to you via a support ticket to assist you with your verification process.

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Hello, I am a freelancer based in London and as some of the jobs are for professional only based in UK I am trying to confirm my identity. As I am not british I do not have british passport or car licence. Is there any other way I can confirm the location?

Thank you.

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place. Couldnt find any email for support. Identity verification requires either a drivers licence or a passport. I have neither. I have my biometric residence permit. Anyone else had the same problem ? Thanks

I recently moved abroad and changed my location. I am now asked to verify my ID. Do I need to be a citizen to relocate? Anyways I don't have a British passport so what's the way forward because this is ridiculous.

You will have visa and stamps and so on.

How do you manage to live and work in London while at the same time going to university in York?

Do you have a UK bank account in your name, utility bills in your name and so on? And things like a UK Work Visa so you can actually work on Upwork while in the UK?

Thank you, Petra

I have successfully verified my Identity.
I am currently in isolation in London and I will be moving to York soon and there is something called online school these days. Not that it's any of your business. Not everyone is a fraudster!

I provided the following:

- My international passport

- My visa, entry stamp, the letter that came with my visa ( I'm in isolation and haven't collected my BRP)

- Utility bill from my address.
