Hi Mushtaq, 

I checked and can see that you have already submitted your documents for the team's review. Please allow the team 48 to 72 hours for the team to review your documents. If they need more information from you, they will reach out to you through email with more details.

Hi Rakibul,

Thank you for reaching out to us. I checked and it doesn't look like you are required to complete any verification process at the moment. Only earning freelancers are eligible/required to earn the “Identity Verified” badge. If you become eligible/required, we will notify you when you log into your Upwork account.

Hello, I'd like to know how long it is going to take for my ID to be verified because it has taken more than 1 day now. Please advise

Hi Olemukhan,

I checked with the team and you should be able to see the ID Verification badge on your profile now!

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?

Would appreciate your urgent support with this process as we need to hire freelancers.

Hi Vlad,

I followed up with the team and you should be able to see the badge on your profile now!

Hi,

I have moved to Cape Town, South Africa recently and signed a lease for one year. Thus, I decided to update my location, however I get very contradicting excuses for not being accepted.

1) First time (ID 36922334) I was told that the lease is not matching my name, when it has all my passport details that I used when signing up for Upwork. While here I go by Kate, which is a short for Ekaterina, I can see in the settings that it's also as how my legal name on Upwork is registered. I don't have any other name.

2) Second time (ID 36927313), it was rejected because "the document type is not acceptable" yet the same agent, lists down below a number of "acceptable" documents, one of which IS a lease agreement.

How is that possible? I did my best to relocate which was not easy, and yet I'm faced with a very odd and contradicting reception and no one in the ticket thread is replying to me.

[AndreaG]

Hi Kate,

I checked with the team and they will be updating you directly via support ticket in order to clarify. Apologies for the confusion.

[47c29710]

Hi Andrea,

I did recieve the reply and now its a 3rd one with and extra layer. Now I'm asked to provide a notarized version of the lease agreement, and it's even stated in the brackets as "notorized" in the new list, although it wasn't there before and is NOT stated here as well - https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us/articles/211067788-Location-Government-ID-Verification

Is this is a game where you change the rules on the go? This really feel very discriminative, I wouldnt say that but changhing minds each time three(!) times in the row surely feels like it.

Can I still receive an invites even if my account is not yet verified? Thanks

[ArjayM]

Hi Jejomar,

Thank you for your message. Yes! You can submit proposals and receive invites from potential clients even if your account hasn't been verified yet. If the team finds the need for you to do it, you will receive an email detailing the instructions on how to complete your verification. You may want to check this help article for more information.

I have no ID verify section/option on my profile settings. How to verify my ID? Thanks

[spectralua]

Upwork will contact you when verification will be needed with all steps provided. You can not initiate it yorself.

[ae57ff59]

when do I get verified? it has been too long. I have been working hard to earn trust among clients, if I get a verification badge after I get verified it helps a lot. so please please send me a verification request.

[LuiggiR]

Hi Cent,

It doesn't look like you need to verify your account yet. Please know that verification cannot be requested. If the team finds the need to verify your account, you will be notified through an email, or through a notification in your account with more information on how you can complete the verification process.

[ae57ff59]

thanks luiggi R,
