Hi, my name is Nurah. I uploaded my ID for verification two days ago, but I haven't received any updates yet. Additionally, I keep receiving pop-ups indicating that I need to verify it by 15/05/23. However, when I click on the verification link, it still shows that my ID is under review. Could you please let me know how long it will take to complete the verification process? I have attached a screenshot for your reference. Also I got my first contract and I want to continue working. Please help.

Hi Nurah,

 

I checked your profile and can see it is being reviewed. In the meantime, you can still work on improving your profile and resubmit it with any changes.
 
To help you create a complete and quality profile, check out these Upwork Academy courses:
 
If you experience any issues with your profile submission or review, please contact support by clicking the "Get Support" button that shows at the bottom right corner in the Upwork Help. You will be asked what type of account you need help with and to describe your issue or questions. Please select the best option for your situation. If you’d like to speak to an agent, you can request that via the chatbot.

I've no idea because I have just learned that my profile has been approved and I am able to apply for jobs on here yet it was many months ago that I applied (perhaps even years) and I wasn't even notified to let me know... 😂

Thanks for these tips Arjay.

 

Yes, this is what I mean, by profile was approved (no idea when because I've never been notified that it's been approved). It has been months > years since I tried to get on here. As soon as I realised, I started working on setting up my profile etc. Thanks.
