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?

Ok, thanks. I have submitted the documents again. It's under verification. Request to please expedite process. Thanks

I got hired two days ago,and got a request to verify my account which I've done to the best of my knowledge.

It shows under manual review, and my client says I need to verify before we continue with the project, which is a huge bummer. 

Please could you expedite?

Many thanks!

Hi Diana,

I checked your account. It seems that your last document submission was rejected. You will need to reupload your documents again from the Settings page. To complete your verification more efficiently, you can refer to the tips section on this help page.

i had already had verifified my identity when i made my profile. When i went to apply to my first job i had to verify again using my phone number for a code, but it say i exceeded my tries to send the code which is not accurate at all. So now im just stuck in a forever loop, and this has been going on for several days now.

I have the same problem, than i posted just like you did. Than someone told me a seperate ticket is created for you. I waited and eventually went to sleep next day i found someone named Cynthia saying provide your number which i did and till now no repsonse. Upwork should really hire some people to respond faster!

Hi Luiggi,  I got a verification pop up, and I have, to the best of my ability, done the necessary verification, but that red warning is still on my profile, which is frustrating, as I currently have an active contract,and need my account in good standing. Could you please rectify? 

Diana.

Good afternoon!

I can't get through identity verification. I am Ukrainian, now I live in Germany. In my profile I indicated Germany as my country. My visa has expired, but now in Germany there is a law that all Ukrainians have their visa extended automatically. I have a letter from the district administration stating that my visa has been automatically extended until 03/04/2025. But the passport has an expired date (the Germans do not change the date on the visa for Ukrainians) How can I get verified?

I am having issue with my ID verification. I am new to upwork so i didn't know about it much.

I added my brother's Card for billing and payment (With his permission) to buy connects. But then i got the notification for the ID verification so when i went there his name was showing.

I deleted his payment details and tried again but still his name is showing.
The current name i am seeing is "Asad Khan". But my name is "Roma Noor".

Kindly help with this issue so i can verify my ID and add my own payment method.
