Entering Personal Information

- Date of Birth: Enter it in the specified format (e.g., DD/MM/YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY).
- Phone Number: Ensure your phone number is correct and active.
- SSN (U.S. Residents): Verify your Social Security Number matches your official documents.
Uploading Your ID or Passport

Image Quality:
