5 Ways to Increase Your ID Proof on Onlinejobs.ph

1. Verify Your Email

The email looks like the one pictured below:

Just click on the link in that email and your email verification is done instantly.

2. Upload a Valid Government-Issued ID (+25 ID Proof)

To upload a valid government ID, you need to go to the Onlinejobs.ph verification page.

Choose the first option, ‘Verify my Government ID‘, among the three buttons pictured above and you will be taken to the page below.

They have very detailed instructions about the requirements of uploading an ID for Onlinejobs.ph so make sure to follow them carefully.

Please note that the ID you upload must have your name, picture, and signature. Onlinejobs.ph will only accept the following government-issued IDs:

UMID
Driver’s License
Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) ID
Passport
Senior Citizen ID
SSS ID
COMELEC / Voter’s ID
Philippine Identification (PhilID)
Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP) ID
Phil-health ID
Firearms License
AFPSLAI ID
PVAO ID
AFP Beneficiary ID
BIR (TIN)
Pag-ibig ID
Person’s With Disability (PWD) ID
Solo Parent ID
Philippine Postal ID
Other Valid Government-Issued ID with Photo & Signature

Take a photo of the ID you are going to use and upload it to the website. Next, take another photo but this time as a selfie that shows both your face and the ID.

After you submit both photos for review, it will take about two to three days for the ID verification process to be completed.

3. Verify Your Address (+30 ID Proof)

You can verify your address by again going through the Onlinejobs.ph verification page but this time you have to choose the middle button that says ‘Verify my Address‘.

Again, there are detailed instructions on the page on what kinds of address verification methods are accepted. This includes:

Electric Bill
Water Bill
Phone / Internet Bill
Credit Card Statements
Bank Statements
Insurance Statements
Parcel Delivery Receipts (Lazada, Shopee, etc.)

Your document must show your billing address with your name on it. Alternatively, if you are living with a relative and you are using their document to show proof of address, then you must have the same last name.

Just like the ID verification, verifying your address also takes two to three business days. It’s a good idea to do them at the same time so you don’t wait for more than necessary.

While waiting for your ID proof verification, you should get your essential work from home equipment ready.

A common mistake most beginners make is not considering the toll of long working hours in front of a computer on your body.

It’s totally okay if you don’t have the budget for this yet. But a laptop stand is a cheap but very helpful item for your work-from-home setup. Once properly adjusted, a laptop stand helps prevent pain in your wrists, neck, and back.

We personally use this portable laptop stand (pictured) that we got from Lazada. It’s easy to set up anywhere and can be used while working in a coffee shop or even abroad.

4. Verify Your Mobile Number (+25 ID Proof)

Similar to the previous two steps, verifying your mobile number is also done through the Onlinejobs.ph verification page. This time, just click on the 3rd button ‘Verify my Mobile Number.’

Just enter your mobile number on the page pictured below.

You will then be asked to message Onlinejobs.ph’s phone number with the validation code from their website using your phone.

After sending the validation code, you can try refreshing the page. If successful, you should see a ‘Successfuly Verified’ page like below.

5. Connect Your Facebook Account

UPDATE: This method is currently disabled or has been removed by Onlinejobs.ph

Lastly, you just need to connect your Facebook account. This is very easy to do.

Simply go to your JobSeekers dashboard and look for the ‘Connect with Facebook’ button.

Just add the URL of your personal Facebook page in the space provided. You can find this URL by going to your Facebook page and copying the web address shown on your browser.

After switching to that chair, my back pain from long working hours has disappeared. Though, that chair is a bit pricey for newbies. If you don’t have the budget for it yet, a back cushion works as excellently for temporary use.
