Get Verified on Twitter in 2023: For the past few weeks, we have seen some reports about Twitter relaunching its verification program. For those unaware, Twitter stopped its verification process in 2017 following the outrage over verifying the profile of white supremacists. Although the social media giant had confirmed relaunching its verification program in January 2023, it did not happen. But the recent evidence indicates that the new process for Twitter Verification is just around the corner.

Researcher and reverse engineering expert Jane Manchun Wong revealed various features making their way to Twitter. One such feature that has caught everyone’s attention is the company’s new verification form. Wong has shared the screengrabs of the entire verification process. While Wong is not associated with Twitter, the process above is confirmed by multiple sources.

The most exciting thing about the new verification process is that you no longer need to upload a government-issued ID. Instead, you will get to choose from the official email address or website, making most real accounts eligible for verification.

While everyone eagerly awaited the new verification process, Twitter took it to its official blog (web archive) last night, confirming the open verification process. While we at Geekman tried to find the new form, we did not find it anywhere. Wong confirmed in another tweet that “It doesn’t necessarily mean the new verification program has officially opened, but it’s close to open.” But within a few minutes, Twitter retracted the “You can now apply for verification” box and reverted it to the old one.

But, from where we see it, Twitter verification is just around the corner, and it might restart anytime now. Now, if you are wondering how to get the blue tick verification on your Twitter, follow the below-mentioned process.
