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 There,
There is no Identity verification Option on my setting page. 
How could I get a verified badge?

Hi Tanvirul,

 

I checked and it doesn't look like you are required to complete any verification at the moment. The team will let you know if there is a need for any verification in the future.
 
Thank you,

As far as I know, it comes with your first job if you're talking about a certified account blue tick

Hi Uroosa

I also face the same problem. But when I get my first project then ID was verified. Somtimes it may take 2-3 business days to verify

last week, my upwork account was on hold.

And upwork asked me to verify my identity within next 5 days.

I tried to complete ID verification process, but the link was invalid.

I attached a screenshot.

 

I asked the new verification link to customer support, but I didn't get any response yet.

What should I do now?

Hello, I'm new to Upwork, it asked for location verification to go through the platform. I uploaded my DL copy but it doesn't seem not accepting -- please advise how to proceed. Thanks!

You are right, many people have such issues. Try uploading your passport or any form of national ID verification cars. I am sure you will make it. All the very best to you.
