United States Location Verification - Unable to do

Getting this error:


Unfortunately, you cannot submit a proposal for this job post because it requires location verification. Based on your previous attempts, you are currently not eligible to verify your location. Please contact customer support.

 

I had uploaded the driver's id once but it said verification failed. 

 

 

I need help on this. 

 

Please help me resolve the issue.

Can someone please help me? I have this message at the top of the screen when I click into a job posting "You've reached the maximum number of tries to upload your ID". When I click on the Contact Customer Support it sends me to this community. I don't see anywhere to upload my ID. I'm happy to do what needs doing, but where do I go?
