JillArmourMicrosoft we had submitted the support request it’s has been open since 03/20/2024. They keep asking to submit the same documents. I have attached official government documents from Secretary of State for company registration and EIN from IRS and the name/address exactly match the details on our partner profile page.
Here is the ticket number: 2403200040008388

- FaazDataAIApr 02, 2024Copper ContributorFinally, our account was verified. It just takes time along with back and forth with via the Portal and support tickets.
The key learnings from this experience is
1- Be persistent and patient it take time if manual verification is required for us it took 2 weeks.
2- You might have to submit the same documentation again if requested. Like In my case, I resubmitted the same EIN and Company Articles of Organization 3 times and finally the same were approved.
3- Make sure your domain is not set to WHOIS Privacy mode. The company name and address should be visible in WHOIS. This was required although this process is forcing partners to expose there private data on public WHOIS servers.
4- Keep the support ticket open until resolved as well as post in the community here.
