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.

Hello!
A few days ago I got this notification: Action required: Verify your identity by 11/10/2022 UTC to continue winning jobs on Upwork.
I went through all steps (I took picture of my national ID and selfie), but I'm still waiting for a review.
What can I do now?
The deadline is today.

Upwork keep on denying my TIN ID for unknown reasons. I re-submitted my ID multiple times and still no reason why you kept on denying my ID. It clearly shows all the required details to be verified so I don't understand why you're doing this to me.

Hi Celine,
Thank you for your message. I am sorry to hear about your verification status. I can see that the relevant team notified you about the status of your verification via this support ticket already. As mentioned on the ticket, the team was unable to validate your ID due to the image quality (cropped/adjusted/altered). Please don't hesitate to follow up with them on the same support ticket if you have additional questions regarding your concern.
Thank you,
Pradeep

I'm on the same boat. I'm worried about my proposals being withdrawn on 15th if it's taking this long to verify my ID.

I've submitted a photo of my drivers license and selfie for ID verification. But it has taken longer than what it says on the page so now I'm worried about my account being put on hold on 15th. I have many proposals that aren't concluded yet and I don't want to miss those opportunities. Is there anything I can do to speed the process?
Nov 10, 2022 11:59:29 AM by Andrea G
Hi Inci,
You should be able to see the 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?
Nov 10, 2022 12:01:03 PM by Andrea G
Hi Doyle,
I checked with the team and you should have the badge on your profile already.
