I created My Adsense Account when i was 16 years old and i am now 5 months away from being 18. I haven't entered any of the tax information in because i am not 18 yet. My question is, once i am 18 and i enter the tax information, will i be able to obtain the money or do you think google will catch that i had the account for 2 years when i wasn't 18 and then cancel my account?
Hmm.. Good question. You dont have to enter your DOB (unless that is a new requirement) and I dont think (i said i dont think, i do not know for SURE) that Google will do an age-check based on your SSN # ... Let us know what happens - then we'll all know!
Tell you a great way to find out the answer to this...... Just fill in the form when you get to 18 and if they pay you then the answer is 'Yes, you have a chance of getting your money'... there you go.. wasn't that hard?
i have made some money my adsense account but they didn't pay me... i have made some own clicks but from another city and other comp...lolthis company's reputation is deteriorating
Aha.. exactly.... By the way Tearabite... liking what i see from you, been looking at your blogs/sites...
Not a good strategy trying to earn a few bucks this way. Google is very clever and I would never suggest to anyone clicking their own ads. One way or another Google will catch you thus resulting in canceled payments. Hopefully you learned a valuable lesson from this.
yea i have built up a decent amount of money in the account so i really don't want to wait that long. If anybody knows anything. PLEASE let me know. I don't want all of my hard work to be a waste of time. I would imagine that i have put about 500 hours into this over the past 2 years.
thanks for the response, i just can't wait any longer. i need to find out if i can get the money, i need to know if i should keep working on ways to get more money in the account or if i should just give up and wait. ahhhhhhh This is killing me.
Might as well try. How much do you have in your account? Hopefully you did not put too much time into it.
of course no!!! it's not what i deserve i've been working for more than 2 years on blogs creating websites , trying to promote them, trying new SEO technics everyday... and i was new to SEO world that's why i t took 2 years! what would you do if this happened to you... that's 2 yeaars of blogging MultiPLIED BY ZERO
Seriously, why nobody read the Google Adsense Policies before they applied a adsense account? It said clearly you must be at least 18 years of age to participate in AdSense. You account definitely will banned when they find out your age.
If you update your account information once you turn 18 - with your d/o/b/ and social security or verficiation code from google you should be fine.
yeh, you fill the form when you become 18 years. Then it will be ok. your account will not be banned. And of course you will get money from google.
It has about $4000 in it. This money would be great to have so i can use it to help pay for college next year.
