Welcome to the Fiverr forums.

How long ago was this?

I helped a friend set up her account right before Thanksgiving and it took 9 days for her W-9 to get approved and her gigs to go live. It’s possible they are still reviewing your information.

Mine was approved within 48 hours and gigs quickly activated. Maybe check in directly with fiverr support by email.

Wait, your profile says you are in Lithuania. Are you required to fill out a W9 if you’re outside the US?

No we don’t have to fill that out. If you’re outside of the U.S. you just have to click a button that says you aren’t a US citizen. (I’m Canadian).

@garythomas9501 these are U.S. based sellers thet do have to fill out the W-9 whereas we just declare that we aren’t American. It takes longer for them because the form has to be manually reviewed whereas we not U.S. folks just click a button
