Hi Roman,

If you are eligible or required to receive an “Identity Verified” 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.

Hi Upwork,

I've been alrady completed my profile to 100% few days back and submitted it for review. It has been more than 72 hours to submitted my profile for appproval, but still I can't access the identity verification tab and due to it, I can't complete the verification from my side and cannot earn the Identity verified badge.

Hi, Pradeep,

Thank you for humble reply.

Today Upwork sent me to verify my account after landing my first job. In the process, I made a mistake, I uploaded my pic instead of my NID card. What should I do now? I tried to contact Upwork but couldn't

Hi Pradeep,

Thx for ur reply,

Please tell me when Upwork will send me the support ticket and how long does it take to verify my account again and if the process takes more than six days, will Upwork suspend my account? and if they did, will the job be cancelled?

Thx again

Nikola S · ‎11-23-2022

Hi Sarra,

If you don’t verify your identity within 7 days of notification we will place a hold on your account. The hold will prevent you from withdrawing earnings, submitting proposals to new jobs, accepting direct hires, or showing up in search results. Any active proposals that have been submitted will be canceled. The hold will not affect your ability to work on existing contracts and we will be happy to remove it once you’ve verified your identity.

You can find more information in this help article.

Hello! I am a college student freelancer and I am new to this application. I had my first client today but I have been notified that I need to verify my identity I don’t have any government IDs to provide. Is there any way that I could provide a verification using a birth certificate? I am only a student and it will take days for me to process documents, and my account could get hold before 7 days. I hope you can help me because I just got my first client.
