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.

This is entirely up to the platform how to handle this. They might forgive the ToS violation, or not.

I tried uploading my ID and I keep getting an error.  A case was opened but now the link is gone.  Is there any way to resolve this?  Is there a department I could speak to directly?  This has been a multi day issue that I feel could have been resolved in a 5 minute call.

 Oh I had that problem.  The photos you take with your phones are only 5Kb or 4Kb.  You need to scan it in a scanner at the Library.  You get a 458Kb image on your USB.  It uploaded right away.

Hi Robert,

 

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.

Dear Upwork Team.

I am Teodick Esmail.

Please verify my Identification.

I did verify my ID in December 16th, but it wasn't verified yet.

And I was emailed from Upwork team like this. "Your account will be suspended in 2 days without ID verification"

I uploaded my ID card and took my SELCA with a smile.

What's the problem? Please help me.

Please continue to type this and send thru community.

Thanks!

Hi,

 

I already accomplished the ID verification process few weeks ago but it's still currently pending. Today, I received an email that I only have 1 day left to process or else my account will get suspended. I attached screenshots.

 

Hoping for your assistance.
