Hi Kori,
Some freelancers will be eligible for digital photo verification in place of a video call. To complete digital photo, or "selfie" verification, you'll be asked to take a photo of yourself on your computer or mobile device. If you run into any issues with your Browser Settings for Visual Verification you can check this help article. For any other issues, please reach out to our support team.

Dear support team
I tried to request an Identity Verification badge from a Desktop computer and use my phone to capture the QR scan but I didn't receive any SMS from UpWork. After a while, I closed the page, and the verification request was sent without visual verification.
Please help me.
Thanks
Mo Ali

Dear community manager,
Now the first and second steps are verified but the third step is remaining. How can I take a selfie? I don't see any action button to take a selfie.
Please help to finish the last one.
Thank you.

Hi Mohamud,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I would like to clarify that you should have the option to take a selfie once you click on the green "Continue" button. Could you please try to click on the Continue button and let us know if you have the option to take a selfie?

Hi Mohamud,
Thank you for reaching out. If you're having trouble with the selfie, could you please try speaking with an agent instead? You can go to Settings > Identity Verification, click on Continue, and you'll see the Speak with an agent button like this.

Hey Upwork Community,
I have a problem with my account, I have done with Identity verification ( ID, localisation, Visual ), but it seems like visual doesn't work and stuck in reviewing, but it's more than 7 days and doesn't approve
Now, Upwork has blocked for me to submit proposal for new work
I need to resolve that ASAP
Oct 22, 2022 03:53:14 PM by Luiggi R
Hi Ilyas,
I checked your account and it doesn't seem that you need to complete any verification at the moment, nor there is any restriction on your account. If you're having trouble submitting proposals on your end, could you please try using a different browser or the incognito mode of your current browser? You may also try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies. Don't hesitate to let us know if the issue persists so we can assist you further.

Hello! I uploaded my selfie for verification and have been waiting for the result for a week now. I think there's been some kind of mistake.
Oct 24, 2022 08:51:46 AM by Nikola S
Hi Mikhail,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I reached out to the team handling your verification process and you should now see the “Identity Verified” badge on your profile. Let us know if you need further assistance.

Hi there, I recently was notified I needed to get verified - ID and location verification were no problem.
But I've been stuck for a few days on the visual verification step. It says "We are reviewing your selfie which typically takes a few minutes, but could take up to 1 business day. " - But it's been I believe 3 days now?
I'm concerned because it says that if I'm not verified by tomorrow, I won't be able to continue to accepting jobs on Upwork.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hi Ahmad Abdullah,
I have checked your account and looks like it doesn't need further verification just yet. Please note that you will not be able to initiate the identity verification yourself and it cannot be requested. If the team finds the need for you to do it, you will receive an email detailing the instructions on how to complete your verification. You may want to check this help article for more information.

Recenty, Upwork asked me to verify my ID and visual Identification. I did both of them but it is taking me almost 5 days now and it's still saying we are reviewing your ID and Visual. What should I do?
