Identity Verification

[#1]

Gov. ID was not approved, and yet it worked on a different page.

Everything shows. It´s not a pristine picture, but everything´s perfectly legible. Not sure how I could take a better picture..

Is there a place I can send it for a personal verification ? 

Thanks

Hello. Need urgent help here. Upwork says they started manual verification(for identity badge), and asks me to "appear on camera for automatic selfie or video chat", but there's no "continue" or "start video" option I can see on my screen so that I can proceed to verify and take a picture, same issue goes with both on my latest samsung phone and on my laptop with camera. Please help me out on this. Upwork's chat option is the AI giving me unhelpful answers. I've attached a screenshot below for reference, please have a look.

Hello All

Can anyone help please?

Thanks

I find myself in a similar situation, patiently awaiting completion of the identity verification process for the past three days. Regrettably, the lack of transparency within this procedure leaves users like myself in the dark regarding the current stage of verification and the anticipated duration. The available documentation, unfortunately, falls short in providing meaningful guidance through this process

Right

Just hold your camera and wait for auto selfie. If this doesnt work, then upwork gives the option to take your own selfie and then takes to the next step.

Thanks for your reply. That's what upwork is not showing, i cannot see the option to "open" my camera on my laptop, or to click "continue" button so I can take my selfie. 

Please tell if it can be done like this but on my phone instead of laptop: 

I click edit button on my profile picture, and click "change image", a popup comes and shows me "camera, browse..." and I see my images in it too, so should I click on "camera" and then it'll proceed and i can take my picture? Thanks a lot again.

[#13]

I did this through mobile. Not laptop. Through mobile, when asked for selfie, you just hold the camera and place your face middle in the circle shows in your mobile. Then just wait. They will automatically take the picture.

I've submitted my ID few days ago and still get no response from upwork team. It says that manually review process has begun. Could you please help me to finish my ID verification process ? I have an offer on the table and can't accept it for this issue. 

[#15]

Same here. Where did you see that manual review process has begun?

Support (the chatbot) assures me that I can indeed verify my identity without a smartphone. However, whenever I attempt to do so, it gives me no option to verify on the computer.

When I attempt to get more help from Support (the chatbot) it says that my account is suspended. I see no indication of this, other than the fact that my account is asking me to verify my identity. Since Support (the chatbot) thinks my account is suspended, it does not allow me to submit a ticket or contact a real person.

If my account really is suspended (beyond needing to verify my identity), I have no indication or idea of what it could be suspend for, so I am apprehensive about submitting an appeal to something I cannot even tell exists.

I need support that is not in the form of the chatbot. I do not know the correct place to seek help, but Support (the chatbot) gave no indication of how to contact someone. Please if someone could direct me to Support (a real person) that would be great, thank you.

Hello! I don't know what happened but I can't or unable to apply for jobs? The Apply Now button was working fine but not anymore. I still have 70+ connects.

[#26]

Hi Kyle,

I can see that you are currently required to verify your identity, and your submitted documents are under manual review, which is why you can't apply for jobs. Please allow 1-3 days for the review to be completed; the relevant team will contact you once they have an update.
