Hi guys,

I freelance on Upwork and I was asked to verify my ID after landing my first client..

So,I was required to submit a Government-issued ID.

The thing is, the only Government Issued ID I currently have is the NIN slip as I haven't been issued the Normal ID card(I applied for the national ID card since a year ago)

So after submitting the NIN slip,I received a mail saying my account has been suspended for falsified ID..

And honestly,The NIN slip I submitted wasn't falsified or tampered with in anyway..

So I contacted their customer support via email and I was told that I should give them time to review my case

But the thing is that ,I have been reading on different websites that any suspended account isn't likely to be released back...

Please,If you can help me in anyway via your comments,I'll be very grateful

Don't be naive...NIN slip or what have you cannot and should not be used for verification. International passport is the real deal or at worst, Driver's license. By now, you should have a passport.

Thanks a lot.

I agree to being naive, I just thought I had no choice as it's the only Government ID I have.

Working towards getting my passport soonest

I might as well forget about the account.

Again, thanks.

I appreciate.

You can appeal the decision, explain your situation, and upload the proper document.
