Can I use a temporary driver's license for identity confirmation on payment platforms?

I have until tonight to confirm my identity for Shopify payments and I just recently got my driver's license so I only have the temporary paper copy. Can I use this to show proof of ID? It's still legit but just not the hard copy.

Also, what happens if I go past the time limit for showing proof of ID? Is my ability to use Shopify payments permanently revoked?
