Identity Verification is under Manual Review

[#1]

Hi. I am stuck in some kind of loop. I have received several requests to verify my identity yesterday and today. I keep using my phone to take a picture of the front and back of my drivers license and then do a quick selfie. It always says "thanks for your submission" and then it says it's undergoing a manual review. A few hours later I get another request to do it all over again. 

I think I've subitted it 5 or 6 times. Should I be doing something different? Am I doing something wrong? Can you help?

Hello Robert,

I am sorry to hear that you are encountering an issue when trying to submit your documents for verification. Before re-submitting, it’s best to take note of the following:

• The ID should be a valid government-issued photo ID (not a digital, expired, or temporary)
• Do not crop or alter your image
• Ensure all four corners of your ID are visible
• The image should be clear and in color
• The ID name must match the information on your Upwork account

You can update your document here. Could you please try uploading your document following the tips shared above and in this helpful article? Let me know if the issue persists.

Hi Fiarovantsoa,

Upon checking, the initial submission was rejected and you will need to upload an alternate document for verification. Please check this help article for more information.

Hi Team,

I couldn't able to complete identity verification. When I click on "Continue" from identity verification page (1.png), it is getting landed to the page saying "Choose how to continue on a mobile device" (2.png). When I scan the QR code or click on "Send" button it is getting redirected to the same page.

Due to this, I can see in "Public view" page saying that "This profile is no longer available." (3.png).

Could you please help to resolve this issue?

Regards

Several days have already passed but still I have no progress in my ID verfication.

I resubmitted my selfie and document several times in order to complete the verificaiton.

As I know, approval could be delayed up to 2 or 3 days but it's been over 4 days.

I would appreciate it if someone could solve my problem.

Hello, I have a problem with my identity verification. I have already submitted my national ID card (Madagascar) 6 times and I have followed the recommendations to the letter (all 4 corners visible, 200 dpi, with photo, etc.). Please note that I do not have a passport or a residence ID, I only have my national ID card, but it does not work. Can you please help me?

Hi Fiarovantsoa,

I'm sorry to hear about the trouble you experienced while verifying your account. I checked, and it seems that your previous submission was rejected because we were unable to authenticate your last ID submission. You will need to submit an image of an alternate government-issued photo ID. You can refer to this help page for the list of acceptable documents.

I have a concern regarding identity verification. Upwork keeps rejecting my NBI Clearance (as stated in the Government ID verification) even though I followed all the instructions. Is there anyone who could help me?
