ID verification

What a reviewer checks, what it unlocks, what locks with it, and what to do if it is turned down.

1 min read

One human step, and it is the whole of what this platform vouches for.

What you submit

A photograph of a government ID, and a photograph of you holding it. Both are uploaded from the verification section of your profile score page, or from step 7 of onboarding.

You have to be 18 or over. The date of birth on the document is one of the things a reviewer reads, and an ID showing the holder is under 18 is not verified.

What it unlocks

Until your ID is verified you can be listed and found, and that is most of it. Verified, you can:

  • read a job's pay and see who posted it: neither is on the public job page for anybody
  • message clients
  • apply to jobs
  • answer a call invitation and pick a time
  • sign a contract

That is why it is worth doing even if nothing is stopping you being listed.

  • Your name, date of birth and gender, at the moment it is approved. A verified name that could be changed afterwards would not be a verified name.

    Nothing else locks. Your photo, address, phone, rate, skills, bio and everything about the work stay editable for ever.

    If a locked field is genuinely wrong, a legal name change or a typo we approved, tell us and we can change it.

    If it is turned down

    You are told, and you are told why. That is different from a profile takedown, whose reason is deliberately not shown: a takedown hides one thing and you keep using the product, while a rejected ID is something we are asking you to do again, and "no" without "why" is not an ask.

    Fix what the reason names and submit again. There is no limit on attempts.

    While it is waiting

    Your profile stays exactly as it is. The verification section shows that it is with a reviewer, and there is nothing else to do.

    Once it is approved, the section and its sidebar row go: there is nothing left to do there, and a page that says "required before applying to jobs" to somebody who has already done it is a page that is wrong about them. Your overview says you are verified, and so does your public profile.

    Very occasionally a submission is withdrawn rather than decided, if it was uploaded in error or was never a real submission. Nothing is held against you and nobody is told anything: the section simply shows the upload form again.

    What happens to the photographs

    They are kept only as long as the decision needs them and are then deleted. The outcome and the dates stay, because that is the record. The privacy page has the authoritative periods.

    Ask an assistant about this

    Copies this page plus a short note about what RemoteHire.ph is, so the answer is about this product rather than about hiring platforms in general. Every button copies the same text; most of them open the assistant with it already asked.

    Gemini has no way to receive the question in a link, so that one copies and opens for you to paste.
