YouTube channel suspended

Maybe what you need to do is start over. After all, you already have plenty of video-making experience, so your new channel should grow quickly. You could also buy an existing YouTube channel and continue developing it to speed things up.
 
Save your original videos and keep a backup somewhere. Losing access to a channel is already stressful enough.
 
I think if you start over, you should use completely new information that has no connection to your old account and make sure to avoid repeating the mistake that led to your account being restricted in the first place.
 
You need to appeal to find out the clear reason; if you have to redo it, you must create a new Google account on the device and completely change the old content.
 
A few things from YouTube's own documentation that I don't see covered yet. On the money question nobody answered: getting paid runs through AdSense, and yes, identity verification is part of it - once your earnings reach the verification threshold you confirm your personal info and submit documents (there is a 45-day window), and after that a PIN is mailed to your payment address which you have to enter before any payment is issued. On starting over: be careful with the advice above to just create a new account with fresh details (Koma, Nikolaj Poulsen). YouTube's termination policy says that if your channel is terminated you are prohibited from using, possessing, or creating any other channels, and that covers new channels you create or acquire - so a fresh channel made to bypass a termination can end up terminated as well. There is an official path worth checking first, and it is fairly new: YouTube is piloting a "Request new channel" option for terminated creators. You sign in to YouTube Studio on a computer with your previously terminated channel and look for the option. It is only available at least one year after the termination date, not for copyright-infringement terminations or Creator Responsibility policy violations, and it is a gradual rollout so the option may not show even if you qualify on paper. The decision comes by email after they review things like how severe or persistent the past violations were. Since your termination was in 2022, the one-year bar is behind you, so this is the first thing I would look for. On appeals, also worth knowing that YouTube limits them to two within one year of the termination date, which is worth weighing against your timeline before following Alessandr's appeal suggestion again.
 
Why were you suspended? If you want to earn money, you must complete identity verification. However, did you complete identity verification for your previous channel? If things are already complicated, creating a new channel using the same identity puts you at high risk of being flagged and having that channel suspended as well.
 
if your restricted channel were brand channel, then you no need to a new gmail to create another channel. but if it not, then yes you need another gmail to create a new channel. use mobile data to create a new channel. starting at creating channel no need to verify with id verification. after some time it will be verify automatically by your channel history. at the time of payout setting you have to complete face verification.
 
If your account is locked, you should find out the reason so you can appeal or do other work while you wait, before preparing for a completely new environment.
