Cannot Publish Gig Due to W9


creeper20

Recommended Posts

I just signed up for Fiverr because I want to start doing art for money and I was working on my first gig post. I began the W-9 form update thing and I filled out my information like where i live and my name and stuff but it doesn’t let me continue. I keep clicking the “next” button to get to the tax forms questions but it doesn’t do anything. Now I can’t even post a gig. any help?

Hey All,

New to Fiverr here. Trying to publish my first gig and I get to the last step which requires me to fill out the W9 as I am a US Citizen, that’s fine. I fill it out and get the confirmation (seven times I might add) that I completed it and am good to go. However, I am not able to publish, it keeps only giving the option to update my W9 which keeps telling me I’m good to go. #WhatIsGoingOn

Thank you for your response, however, I just tried that and it did not fix the issue. I'm not sure what you mean by "try perfectly".

I’m not sure what you mean by “try perfectly”.

Hi Nelan1234, I had this issue over the weekend when I signed up Sat night. I reached out to Support and was told they knew about the issue and it wasn’t until yesterday morning at 9am the problem was resolved and I received notification that my W-9 was validated and I was good to go.

Contact Customer Support and fill out a ticket. They may not even know it’s not working again. But, they did know there was a problem over the weekend and it took a day and a half before it was resolved. Good luck.

I’ll go try that. Thanks!

They were fairly responsive. Keep your eyes on your notifications too. You will receive one once it’s working again.

Good luck.

For anyone reading this thread, I eventually got an additional email also telling me that my W9 was confirmed but this time it said that it was reviewed and approved by Tax Authorities, so if you’re having this same issue just give it a few hours.

I had that happen and I just spammed the next button. Then it loaded more of the w-9 form so I filled that out. Still wouldn’t let me click next so a few next button spams later, the option to type in my SSN(which was underneath the bottom of the Fiverr page). Then it let me click next. It said everything was completed but now when I try to publish it, I get sent back to redo my W-9, even though I’ve gotten the confirmation that it is done. Thankfully I don’t have to refill it out but I can’t publish my gigs.

I am also having this problem. I can’t get past the 1.Address page in the W9 form because the Next button is not a link. It is just a button that does nothing. Did fiverr take the link off or mess something up in the code? It’s pretty frustrating. I’ve tried 4 times already and it is still not fixed.

Same. I cannot get it to work. Did you find a work around?

I am having the same exact issue with publishing my gig. “Publish” button is grayed out and it’s stuck on the W9 page. I’ve sent a message to support. I’ll let y’all know if I find a solution.

Try perfectly. Lol. Did it work?

Reading this entire thread, the answer to the “dilemma” of not being able to publish your Gig due to some bug in Fiverr’s system when it comes to submitting your W9 is getting in touch with Customer Service - that is the only thing in this thread that has worked for someone having this issue.

Submitting “perfectly” is nonsense - not sure what that poster is even talking about and I bet he doesn’t either!

If you have this issue, create a ticket with Customer Service so they can look at your account and fix this for you already!
