CLIENT SAYS HIS COMPANY NEEDS MY ADDRESS AND GOVERNMENT ID ON AN NDA

[d270c1cf]

During an interview, a client said that I have to attach a valid form of identification to confirm any address that I put on the NDA. He, however, stated that he'll report to his team if the Upwork team refuses this. I am really sceptical about uploading a government-issued id that contains my private details. So, I'm asking if it is against Upwork's TOS to do so. I'm fine with signing the NDA without uploading my ID as long as it isn't against Upwork's TOS. I don't want to get into any trouble with Upwork. I'd be glad to hear people's honest opinions on this. Thank you.
