Identity Verification

[Omer S]

Hello Moderator and fellow freelancers, I have applied for identity verification as there is dispute on my odesk name spelling and bank account name spelling. Its been almost 10 days and there is no update from odesk side. How much time do they take?

Hello Omer Shahid I have just heard from our support team about your issue. According to them you have been verified today. Usually verification process takes 7 to 10 business days.

If I undergo the verification process, will I still be able to transact, work and widthdraw my earnings?

Hi Jason,

Once you complete your ID verification, you will certainly be able to apply for jobs, work on your contracts and withdraw your earnings normally. See more information in this help article.

Hello Valeria,

Hope you are doing good!

I would like to change the idenitty of our Administrator (Owner) profile (First & Last Name) and also setup new email address. I changed NAME but it asked me to submit the proof.  I have proof but I am not able to find from where I need to submit the same. And also is there any process where I shall get the confirmation asap?

So would you please guide me for the same?
