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.

There was a prompt that happened to pop up asking me to verify my ID, will I get the verification badge?
Thanks in advace.

Hi Sohaib,
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 everyone! I alredy sent my photo selfy and ID, around 2-3 days ago, but i always have this notification, which says that i must verify befor 16.01. When i click on this i see ( attached screenshot), there is no possibility to add it again. I don't understand what they want from me, and what i should to do. I'm afraid that soon i will be blocked and i don'know what to do..
Should i stop all my applications to clients? Because if they will block me 16.01 what will be with contracts..

Hi Katerina,
Thank you for following up. I would like to clarify that you received a response from one of our agents just recently on your ticket. Feel free to follow up on your ticket if you have further questions and they will be happy to assist you.
Regarding your concern about verification. 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 here.
