Hey BHW. 2 Days ago I started putting up YouTube videos, and I had Adsense ads on them. Today I reached over 10$ in total, and Google decided to rape me by putting my account on hold. Apparently that's what happens when you reach a certain amount of $ on Adsense. They asked me for 4 things; Phone confirmation, Choose Payment Method, Submit Tax Information, and PIN Confirmation. I completed 2 of the above (Confirmed my Phone No, and Chose my Payment Method). The Pin is supposed to arrive to my physical mailbox, so that will take around 2-3 weeks, but that's not the problem. The problem is, the tax information, I'm only 17, and I live in Canada. What the hell am I supposed to do? I don't even pay taxes yet. Is there anything I can do about this? I don't want the time I wasted making these videos to go down the drain.

Any kind of advice will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thats a Payment Threshold. It happens to everyone. -.-...
And if your 17, just put in the information that is true.
If your willing to abide the rules, guess you either have to wait.

Google raped you by having you verify your account with $10 in it?......

Lol, no. I'm 17, and I can't give them my tax ID, since I don't have one. They basically want what I cannot give, and all the money I will make with this account in the few following days, I won't be able to receive. That's where the rape occurs.

You don't have any id at all at 17? Don't you drive? If you do, you would have a driver's license... which IS an id...

I have a Social Insurance Number, and a Medicare card. Will that help?

My adsense account is under my moms info cuz I'm underage too.

Should I change the account to my moms info then?

bump!!!

If you want, it's up to you.

Problem solved, since I don't own a server, nor do I have employees in the US, all I had to do was write down a digital signature, and that's it.
