Identity (ID) Verification

[#1]

there is no menu item for verification by ID when I follow the link there is no such page either ... what is the problem please help me to pass verification. thanks

[#2]

Totally agreed. Most client prefer ID verified freelancer over not-ID-verfied freelancer. This way a new freelancer keep bidding without any positive responce from the clients for a long time unless the freelancer get lucky somehow. This is a terrible system.

Hi Ahammad, 
I got the contract, but I didn't get any ID verification request. Is this a platform issue or please adivse how to move forward. Thanks!

Hi Matt,

You are not required to complete any verification at this time. 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.

Dear Luiggi & Team

I would like to verify my ID. I haven't been asked for it yet though. But the problem is I can't find any link to get started.

Where can I find the ID verification link?

Moreover I have submitted proposals where in the Client is asking for registered Upwork ID which i dont have since i didn't do any verification. Also i didnt find any links to do so.

Good day Sir!

I also experiencing the same situation. I did not see any verification settings yet about my ID. 

You mentioned that when you get a contract in Upwork, that's the time that you can have the ID verified. Does that mean that there is a possibility that I could be hired even though I am not yet verified? No payment verification nor identity verification?

Thank you!

Hi Portia,

Thank you for reaching out. 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.

You can still apply for jobs and be hired even if you don't have the badge yet. You can confirm this by submitting a proposal.

Dear Annie Jane B,

i could see your reply "It doesn't look like you need to verify your account yet"

But why are client's are asking for Registered Upwork Id.

I have been asked to sign an NDA aswell togeather with the Registered Upwork Id.

I Have been told by client that they provide project to Registered profile only. I have a situation here i wiill be loosing on this proposal for not having a registered Upwork ID.

Please assist me in geting a registered Upwork Id so as to provide to the client for fullfilling NDA with the client.

Regards

Thank you for the information. 😀

[#10]

so thats the question, should we pay to win a contract as an unreal unverified person in this platform?

im not an interesting applicant for  clients compared to verified users.

only  for low budget and almost unverified clients.  

its unfair, it should be for anyone or for all.

please help me to make a request for identity verification feature back to the setting as it was.

Hi Esmaeil,

I have checked your account and looks like it doesn't need further verification just yet. Please note that you will not be able to initiate the identity verification yourself and it cannot be requested. 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.

Hi Andrea,

My partner is an old member of Upwork, she requested for me to post in here since her account has been hold by Upwork. She has tried to verify her account but few months had already passed but the reviewing process is still ongoing, she also cannot submit another verification. I believe this needs to be resolved as her account has been on hold for months now.  She has her postal ID ready in case the verification needs to be done again but we need Upwork support to reply to us to resolve this matter. We have been constantly emailing Upwork but no resolution has been done until now.

[#20]

Hi the Upwork community.

I hope everyone doing good.

I've submitted my ID for verification a while ago, but it is still showing the "We're reviewing your documents"  Note: How long does this usually take? Can you fix the issue?

Thank you and regards,

Jahangir Alam.

Hi Daniel,

I'm afraid that we won't be able to discuss the status of another user's account for privacy and security reasons. However, rest assured that decisions to suspend a user's account are not taken lightly and without fully investigating for TOS violations.

Please, refer to this help article for general reasons why our Trust & Safety team may take action on an account. If your partner needs to get in touch with the team, they may do so through the support ticket they already have with them. Alternatively, they can contact support by clicking the "Get Support" button that shows at the bottom right corner of the Upwork Help page.

Hi Andrea, when I opened my Upwork account recently, I verified my phone and government ID, it's all in the system, but it doesn't show on my profile page. All it shows is a section titled "military", I repeatedly opted out of this but it remains on my profile. Can you please help!

[#25]

Hi Bojana,

By design, your verified phone number and ID won't show on your public profile page. If you're referring to the ID Verification Badge, note that this is a different verification process and you will be notified once you're required to complete it.

In addition, the section that appears as "Military Veteran" is intended for you to use in case you wish to add your Military status. This won't show on your public profile if you haven't added it. You can check this help article to learn more. 

[#26]

Dear, I'm also facing the same issue. But the thing that I have to understand from your reply is Upwork team asked us themselves for verification.
