Why is it so hard to get verified? | Microsoft Partner Center
Community ManagerRamiRamiRami sorry for your issues here, as you can see there are MANY MANY partners in the same situation. I am not support or part of the verification team, I only manage the partner community, so I don't know much about the process.
What was the messaging support shared back to you after opening a ticket? Maybe I can pinpoint what is incorrect about your application.
Thanks, JillArmourMicrosoft. We'll let everyone know as soon as we find the secret ingredient. But for now, we're still stuck
All sorts of documents got requested. Rental contract, domain invoices, business registration, extract from the commercial register, ids. We submitted these documents within minutes. Only to be asked for exactly the same documents again a day later.
We have received/sent around 50 emails since August 19.
I'm facing similar challenges like many other partners trying to join the Microsoft Partner Program. Despite providing all the necessary information, including profile details, email address, and legal documents, there's been a significant delay in the employment verification process.
It's disheartening to encounter such obstacles, especially considering that partners contribute significantly to Microsoft's success by delivering 97% of the solution and developmental services.
I urge Microsoft to streamline this process and improve response times. A more efficient and supportive experience would demonstrate their commitment to working collaboratively with partners and ultimately benefit their customers.
Let's share our experiences and advocate for a smoother partner onboarding process.- JillArmourMicrosoft
CSTrainers Thank you for your feedback and I hope your verification comes through soon!
- I am writing to express my urgent concern regarding the ongoing status of my partner application. Despite submitting all required documentation, including domain name registration receipt, D&B number, EIN, and other requested information, my application remains in the "employment verification" status.
I have repeatedly submitted the requested information, but the verification process seems to be stuck. I've attempted to seek assistance through emails, support tickets on the partner site, and various channels, including community forums and online resources, but I've been unable to find a resolution. The online partner documentation mentions options for scheduling an appointment or contacting support, but these options appear to be disabled or unavailable for account issues.
I kindly request your immediate attention to this matter. Please review my application and provide a clear explanation for the ongoing delay in the employment verification process. Additionally, please advise on the next steps required to move forward with my partnership application.
