I'm trying to add my ICICI bank to Upwork but Upwork doesn't identify my bank through IFSC Code.
I tried to add an address but the address field is too short to add the complete address.
I've been trying to reach support but the Get Help button was grayed out.
The missing IFSC code: ICIC0007392
Kindly, help!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Wow! Really?
Is it happening to add accounts already added? I may have to wait till Friday to find out! Right now, it shows my ICICI account on the Payment Methods List!

yes, and you will not get paid to icici bank until this issue is solved from the Upwork side. and whenever you try to edit the payment method, your icici bank details will automatically get deleted by Upwork due to this issue.

After the failed message, did the funds immediately return to Upwork account?

We attempted to process your recent payment request but unfortunately it failed.
SWIFT code is OFAC restricted. MOP is deleted. New disbursement preferred UPM is Optional.empty.
When I tried to update Payment method again:
Due to US government regulations, this payment method cannot be added. Upwork is not accepting my IFSC code of ICICI Bank

I am having the same OFAC issue as well with ICICI.
Although i was able to add IDFC first bank and paypal. Guess i will find out whether that works in 3 days!

Hi
I am a freelancer from India working on upwork for several years. I regurlay receive payments from my clients through local bank transfer method. This method was working fine till last week.
Today I receive error that .
We attempted to process your recent payment request but unfortunately it failed.
SWIFT code ICIC000**** is OFAC restricted. MOP #15918168 is deleted. New disbursement preferred UPM is Optional.empty.
As a result, the funds have been returned to your Upwork account and we need you to update your payment method for future payments.
I called my bank and they said the error is about SWIFT code but the error message contains IFSC code. They asked me to update swift code in your system but unfortunately there is no place to enter SWIFT code in payment method.
Please help

Yup, though not sure when the issue will get solved.
ICICI bank account use to work right earlier ?
Apr 13, 2022 07:36:18 AM by Hamendra S
I keep getting "Due to US government regulations, this payment method cannot be added. Please add a payment method that complies with US legal requirements." error.
While adding a bank account of ICICI bank.
Apr 13, 2022 07:41:02 AM by Ankur B
Yeah it seems everyone in India getting same error. Lets wait for update from support team
Apr 13, 2022 05:59:08 AM Edited Apr 13, 2022 06:12:44 AM by Hamendra S
I had filled all the information correctly still not able to add it.
On the final page when I click next it says it should comply with US regulations. (i.e Due to US government regulations, this payment method cannot be added. Please add a payment method that complies with US legal requirements.)
But I am a non-US person.
Not sure how to fix that issue?
Any thoughts on this?

Hello Bonjan ,
I am also facing the same problem with my ICICI Bank account. I tried to withdraw the fund but it got rejected with the same message that the SWIFT code is OFAC restricted. My settings for "direct to local" have been deleted too and when I try to add back my account Upwork is displaying that my bank account is not found. Please help!
Apr 13, 2022 12:53:08 PM by Ashraf K
It is clear that there is a problem with ICICI Bank account, can anyone confirm what exactly happened to the funds?
Was the payment withdrawal processed by Upwork? Did the funds return o Upwork immediately or are the funds stuck?
