Upwork under 18 ?

Hey everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. I’m 16 years old and super excited to start selling my services on Upwork. I’ve been working hard on my skills and really want to get some experience and earn my first clients.

However, I’ve run into a bit of a problem: Upwork requires you to verify your ID, and since I’m under 18, I can’t complete the verification process. I know there are a lot of creative and experienced people here, so I wanted to ask—has anyone here found a workaround for this or managed to start working on Upwork before turning 18?

I would really appreciate any advice, tips, or even just hearing about your experiences. I’m eager to learn and get started, and I’m sure there are others in the same situation. Thanks so much in advance for your help!
