Hello guys, please help me out.

Should I use a Nigerian ID or a fake US ID? If I should use fake, who can help me do the design?

Don't bother about the verification bro, keep doing your work and don't mind all that talk out of ignorance

Your Employment History are mostly in Nigeria here. But you stay in Canada? Not saying that's the problem of but I guess some people might have catch on.

Guilty I kinda maintain people's to apply for them, abi does this mean not operating different with fake names ??

Also is anyone looking into Webflow gigs ? it's drag and drop to build a website, doesn't require code. I use it, but not looking for WebFlow gigs. I hate design tasks.

Chai I love design but it's UI not webflow, haven't designed webflow website before.
It's high time I started using this no code platform.

Please who has used NIN slip for verification here? Did it work?
Also when selecting the category of the identification I'm submitting, should i choose 'Others' or 'National ID'?
THANKS.

I think that's a clear breach of the TOS, only the owner should operate the but how much can they police such rules?
It'll be hard for them to find out you're doing such anyway

Anyway, make we try stick to their rules, bad reputation hurts more than just oneself in international dealings.

1. I used my NIN and it was accepted

2. Can't what I picked but it should be National ID

P.S: verified almost a year ago so I have no idea if it current still works. Maybe someone who verified more recently would be in a better position to answer this

I use Figma for design and Webflow for development. I’m currently building out my portfolio with concept projects as I have no real client yet. Can I hit you up when I’m done? I plan to start freelancing on upwork and I need your expertise and guidance.

I don’t have any experience on Upwork. But when I had issues with Luno and they rejected my NIN slip, I used the NIMC-MobileID app and it worked. I attached a picture of the app.

You are going to get his banned, It might not happen now but it will definitely happen and it will be painful.

Hmmmmmm.


This matter get as e be oooo.

All in all...I'll advise you to be careful and also know they change their TOS often without alerting freelancers.


So, make sure all your loose ends are tied up so your doesn't get suspended.

Good day Upworkers, how is the family ( in Sabinus voice) and Happy weekend. Please Gurus in the house should help me review my Profile. I have been on Upwork for two months but I haven't receive any offer, so I am thinking that my profile might be the problem.

How many applications have you made ?

I keep telling you all, F^^* all these profile optimization nonsense.

A GREAT PROPOSAL is your pathway to getting jobs on upwork.

Having a great profile with a sucky proposal changes NADA.

I've been upworking for over 7 years now, with an average income of $15,000 monthly, and the above advice will change your life if you utilize it.

Hey.
My was suspended yesterday but it just got approved and I realized the problem was from my end.
I didn't use the right location on my upwork profile but I later did, and my was finally verified.
Make sure the contents of your NIN slip match the contents of your profile. If they don't match, your will be suspended.
Also use 'Others' instead of 'National ID' when selecting the category.
Lastly, don't send them a soft copy of the slip. Make sure you snap it. Don't crop it too.
Just send it to them like that.
Make sure your first name, last name and middle name on your upwork profile correlates with the one on your NIN slip.

Thank you very much. Was your NIN slip coloured or black and white?
Also, if I may ask, what was the issue with your location?
