Update: I got accepted by getting my hands on my student ID. It looks like what GitHub wants is a VERY official-looking document, or in my case, a dated ID card.Please continue to post here as others are still struggling with this issue. Have a wonderful day wherever you may be :) |

If you see that issue that means when the image was processed it did not see your name on whatever document you uploaded so to fix this problem you need to upload a document that has a name matching your GitHub profile name and you don't even have to have a bio. |

While you are taking the picture of your document make sure your hand is visible on the picture. It's work for me. |

Just wanted to add my experience as well to help unblock anyone else who might see this. I was trying to take a picture of my class schedule from the online web portal, since my student ID doesn't have any dates on it. Th issue was that the web portal by default only had my first name on it, and that was the issue. By clicking the (at least on my portal) "Display your personal information button" and it showed my first and last name on the portal, that fixed the issue. |

For non-English students: It seems that the image preprocessing is pretrained for English. My personal experience is that take a photo of your ID card, and then annotate the name in English. |
