ID Verification

Hi there,

I would like to verify my ID.  I haven't been asked for it yet though. But the problem is I can't find any link to get started.

Where can I find the ID verification link?

 

Thanks much for your time.

Hi Mohammad Shohel, 

 

Please know that you will not be able to initiate the identity verification yourself. If the team finds the need for you to do it, you will receive an email detailing the instructions on how to complete your verification.

I got an email after the direct contract payment from client that My account is on hold and i have to provide Government-issues ID and Bank/Utility Statements. But the problem is I only have Government issued ID but not any Bank/Utility statement because I have filled the form recently for opening a bank account and other bills doesn't generated on my name. They wrote in email that if i didn't provide it within 5 days my account will be suspended. I just want them to increaase the deadline so I could open a bank account and generate the bank statement . I want more than 5 days. Please

Hi
Identity is not very verified in my account. Please verify my ID.

Hi Md,

 

It looks like you are not yet required to complete this step. If you are required, you’ll be notified upon log in to complete the verification process by uploading a non-expired government-issued photo ID and meeting with us for visual verification. After we’ve confirmed your identity, the new badge will be displayed on your profile.

Hello UPteam,

 

I recently received a message that I need to be verified. Although, I already have several jobs completed on Upwork. I remember that I already submitted some of my ID for verification.

 

Now I have a new accepted job, but Upwork requires me to verify again. When I click get verified an error appears, please check the screenshot below. 

 

Thank you in advance

Hello dear workers! I need help with my ID verification!
First, i am new on upwork. My ID document is some damaged, so I just scanned other document which i realized (after read the rules) it is wrong.
Is there another way to verify my ID? Just for video call for example, because it's really hard to get a new ID document in my country (Venezuela) and it could take months.
I don't have passport or something else, just my damaged ID document.
Thank you for reading and for the support!
