Payouts from Shopify Payments are on hold

Good afternoon. I am a new user in Shopify. To confirm my account, I am asked to attach a photo of my passport and a photo of the paid apartment bills. But if the apartment is not registered in my name, and I have nothing to do with paying for utilities. I can only provide a photo of a valid passport, but not to the receipts. What should I do in this case ?Because the passport photo is not sent without a photo receipt. Can you only accept my passport photo to verify my identity ?

Hi there @Polina23 !

Don here from Shopify.

Thanks for taking the time to outline your query with us here in the Shopify Community.

It would be necessary to submit a form of documentation that confirms your address officially for our records.

Depending on where you are located specifically, the exact document types you can use may vary slightly, though generally speaking, you would be able to use a bank statement (from a non-virtual finance institute) dated within the last 3 months that has your name and address.

If you are happy to confirm which country your store is based in, we can share any other options you would have there in terms of documentation.

Are you still working on setting your store up here? Our store launch checklist is an excellent resource to keep handy in the leadup if so.

I look forward to hearing from you and working together on this.

Regards,

Don
