Artifact Signing identity validation stuck: Au10tix says "you do not meet requirements to create a Verified ID"

I am setting up Azure Artifact Signing (Trusted Signing) for my company, Micros Trader (United States). The account and the Artifact Signing Identity Verifier role are in place and the organization identity validation shows "Action Required".

When I follow the "complete your verification" link, Microsoft Authenticator asks for a Verified ID. The Au10tix ID check failed the face match against my valid Texas driver's license (the photo clearly matches), and Au10tix now shows "Sorry, you do not meet requirements to create a Verified ID at this time" with no way to retry. The "Get Support" button only leads to a help article.

I deleted the first request and created a new one; the new link lands on the same Au10tix lockout.

Identity validation id begins c77fb26 (I will share the full id and tenant privately).

Primary email on the request: ******@microstrader.com

Could someone from the Artifact Signing team reset the verification or complete it through an alternative path? Thank you.

    Hi George,

    I wouldn't assume the beard is the cause.

    The message you're receiving has also been reported by other Artifact Signing users after AU10TIX/Verified ID verification failures, including cases where recreating the Artifact Signing validation did not immediately resolve it.

    Since you've already deleted and recreated the validation and the same AU10TIX state persists, I wouldn't keep creating additional validation requests.

    At this point I would escalate the existing validation to Microsoft and ask for the Verified ID/AU10TIX verification state to be reviewed and whether the current session can be reset or retried.

    Keep the full validation ID, tenant/subscription information, screenshots and identity information private and provide them only through the appropriate Microsoft support channel. I've attached the link for Microsoft Support here - https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/support/create-ticket/ and also some supporting information:
