    Thank you for your feedback @Hannah_Payoneer. I was just worried that my money will be put on hold.
    My concern is, I registered as Individual, because I honestly do not have a business to register to begin with. Was it not automatically filtered that is why I was still asked to verify or provide business details? And until now, the notif is still in my settings. Will it not affect my salary in some ways?

    Hi @Herchelle you will eventually have to provide the details of what you are doing for work, it does not have to be your personal business(if you do not have a business) but it should be related to why you are earning money. The sooner you provide the details the quicker it can be reviewed and then should not interrupt your payments.
