Hi Get,
If you are eligible or required to receive an “Identity Verified” badge, you can complete the two stages by going to Identity Verification in your Settings.
You may be asked to complete a visual verification and provide a valid government-issued ID. Acceptable documents include passport, national ID card (NIC/CNIC), driver's license, NBI Clearance (Philippines only), tax ID, voter ID, postal ID, or any other valid government-issued photo ID that meets these criteria.
Note that we occasionally ask users to re-verify because periodic checks ensure their accounts continue to reflect accurate information. Our goal is to make this process as seamless as possible and we thank you for your contribution to keeping Upwork a professional and safe community.
If you don't see a way to verify, that may be because you're not eligible yet. Please know that verification cannot be requested, but is slowly being rolled out to all talent. If the team finds the need to verify your account, you will be notified through an email, or through a notification in your account.

I want to do an ID verification video call with an Upwork agent. I'm new here. And I think I won't be able to get clients if my ID is not verified. Help, please.

I can't see any identity verification option in my account setting.
How could i verify my account?
Nov 21, 2021 11:57:06 AM by Luiggi R
Hi Muhammad,
I checked and it doesn't look like you are required to complete any verification at the moment. The team will let you know if there is a need for any verification in the future.

Hi ,
I am new to Upwork and I got my first client but I need to verify my identity.
I have given all information correctly but the ID verification can't be done.
Can anybody help me to get through this, I have only 2 days left to verification.
Thanks

Hi Aamir,
Are you experiencing any problems with the verifications process or receiving any errors on your end? Thank you.
Nov 22, 2021 12:13:24 AM by Aamir A
Hi Goran ,
Actually, I haven't received any error but when I am uploading the documents/ID it says we couldn't verify you please try again. As I have given the correct format and correct ID and passport. I don't understand what's wrong with my steps .

Can I request identity verification to get the badge in my profile? Thanks
Nov 24, 2021 10:46:00 AM by Muhammad Shoriful I
When you will finish one project on Upwork then they will notify you're eligible to verify your profile.
Then you'll be asked to:
1. Valid Government Issued ID
2. Video verification of you by video call & will be asked one or more question
So, it's very simple.
Have a great time in the journey of Upwork

I uploaded my ID twice. Both times the verifications failed. Now I have just uploaded my DL. I hope it works this time since the deadline is tomorrow. What could be the issue here? I make sure the images are clear. I will appreciate any kind of help.
Nov 27, 2021 06:16:48 AM by Mary W
Be sure that all 4 corners of your DL are in the picture. For some reason, that matters. Other than that, I got nuthin'
Nov 27, 2021 06:20:39 AM by Teresiah E
I did. Now they are reviewing the document. They say it can take up to one business day.

Hello!
I'm new to Upwork, and I'm trying to get verified. I don't see the option to do that in my Profile Settings. I tried asking the Chatbot, but it just keeps saying "We'll let you know once you're eligible/required..."
How exactly do I become eligible for ID Verification?

When you are asked by upwork to do it. Not before your first contract.
Nov 28, 2021 01:58:49 AM by Jan C
I see. I just noticed that some other applicants to the jobs I applied for, are verified. I figured being verified would increase my chances of getting accepted.
Anyway, thanks a lot for your reply. I appreciate it.

We are unable to complete ID verification at this time. Please contact support by visiting the Upwork Help Center to resolve this issue.
I'd appreciate if anyone helps me resolve the issue and verify the account in time.

Hi Nam,
I’m sorry to hear you haven’t been able to start the verification process. Could you please clear your cache and cookies or try using Firefox as a browser when you initiate it?
If the issue persists let us know.
Thank you!

Good day! Can a police clearance be used for identity verification? currently, the issuance of government id requires more than a week. Thus, I cannot send a valid id before the date December 05. The police clearance also has the needed information such as the photo, signature, birthday, and address.

Hello,
I can't find the identity verification section on my profile settings. When I try to use the link which directs to ID verification, it says the page doesn't exist. Could anyone help me with this?
Nov 30, 2021 01:55:30 PM by Bojan S
Hi Ozgur,
Since you're still not eligible for this badge, you can not access that link. Once you become eligible/required, we will notify you when you log into your Upwork account.
Thank you!

Hi, I tried to upload my ID multiple times but it kept failing on me, I uploaded a new photo every time but the same thing happened. Despite the unsuccessful attempts, it's saying my ID is being reviewed, and it will take up to 1 business day. It's already been 3 days. I'm at a loss here and this action is required by 12/2 which is tomorrow. Any help would be appreciated!
