Hi Roman,
If you are eligible or required to receive an โIdentity Verifiedโ badge, you can complete the two stages by going to Identity Verification in your Settings.
You may be asked to complete a visual verification and provide a valid government-issued ID. Acceptable documents include passport, national ID card (NIC/CNIC), driver's license, NBI Clearance (Philippines only), tax ID, voter ID, postal ID, or any other valid government-issued photo ID that meets these criteria.
Note that we occasionally ask users to re-verify because periodic checks ensure their accounts continue to reflect accurate information. Our goal is to make this process as seamless as possible and we thank you for your contribution to keeping Upwork a professional and safe community.
If you don't see a way to verify, that may be because you're not eligible yet. Please know that verification cannot be requested, but is slowly being rolled out to all talent. If the team finds the need to verify your account, you will be notified through an email, or through a notification in your account.

Hello,
I've submitted my ID for verification a while ago, but it is still showing the "We're reviewing your documents and will get back to you within 1 business day." note. How long does this usually take?

Hi Abdul,
I have reached out to the team handling your case and I'm pleased to inform you that your ID is now Verified. You should see the ID Verified badge on your profile as confirmation. Let me know if you need further assistance. Thank you!

Hi,
I've submitted my ID for verification a couple of days ago, but it is still showing the "We're reviewing your documents and will get back to you within 1 business day." note. How long does this usually take?
Also is anyone else experiencing the same issue or is it just me?
Another issue is that I sent a request to make the profile public again (multiple times) for a month now, and no one replied back nor the issue is resolved.
Thanks!

Hi Allaa,
I'll be following up with the team about your submission, you should expect an update soon. As for your profile visibility, I went ahead and reset it back to public.

Hello Andrea!
Thanks for the help, can you also check with the team if there's a problem with the profile picture as it's the only thing that's still pending?
Many thanks for the quick aid.
Edit: Sorry I meant the visual identification selfie*

My identity got approved yet my visual verification is still in process for the third day today.
Can you please check if there's a problem or anything that I can do to fasten the process before the verifying deadline?
It's the only thing holding me back from the fully verified state.
Thanks!

Hi Allaa,
As advised, I have followed up with the team regarding your Identity Verification as a whole. Please allow some time for the team to review.

Hello, Nikola, can you check my account, too?
I have waited for 1 day and still seeing this screen when click the "Action required..." links appeared..
Thanks in advance.

Hi Frederick,
Arjay here stepping in for Nikola, I have reached out to the team handling your case and It looks like your ID submission was denied due to image quality. The team confirmed that an email was sent to you with details and further assistance on how to complete the process. Feel free to communicate with the team through that email so that they can assist you more efficiently. Thank you!

Hi Tiron,
Thank you for reaching out. It may temporarily be put on hold but once your verification is successful, the hold should be lifted. I noticed that you are already in contact with one of our agents from the support team regarding the modification that you need to do in order to get your verification approved. If you wish to update the team with new information, I highly suggest that you post it on the ticket thread so we can assist you more efficiently.
