It's a common issue for AdSense users not to receive their PIN the first time. Here's a breakdown of how to resend, re-apply, and complete your AdSense PIN verification:

How to Resend Google AdSense PIN / How to Re-apply for AdSense PIN

If you haven't received your Google AdSense PIN after 3 weeks from the initial sending date, you can request a replacement.¹ Google allows you to request up to four PINs in total. All replacement PINs are duplicates of the original, so if the first one eventually arrives, you can still use it.²

Here's the process to resend your PIN:

1. Sign in to your AdSense account.

2. Go to Payments, then click on Verification check.

3. On this page, you should see an option to "Resend PIN." Click on it.³

Important Notes:

• Wait at least 3 weeks before requesting a new PIN. The option to resend might not appear before this time.

• Verify your payment address: Before requesting a resend, double-check that your payment address in AdSense is accurate and can receive standard mail.⁴ Make sure it matches the country/territory of your AdSense account.

• Check with your local post office: Sometimes, PIN mailers are held at the post office, especially if they look like promotional mail. It's a good idea to inquire there.

• Maximum Attempts: You can request a replacement PIN three times, meaning a total of four PINs will be sent.

AdSense PIN Verification Steps

Once you receive your 6-digit PIN mailer:

1. Sign in to your AdSense account.

2. Click on Payments, then navigate to Verification check.

3. Enter the 6-digit PIN exactly as it appears in your PIN mailer.

4. Click Submit.

Key Points about PIN Verification:

• Accuracy is crucial: Enter the PIN precisely. If you enter it incorrectly three times, your account will stop showing ads.⁵

• Timeline: You have four months from the date your first PIN was generated to complete the address verification.⁶ If you don't verify within this period, ads will stop showing on your pages.

• No Tracking: Google does not provide a tracking number for PIN mail. It's sent via standard international mail.

• Identity Verification (Pre-PIN): In some cases, Google may require you to complete identity verification before they even send the PIN. This usually involves uploading a government-issued ID.

What if I don't receive any PINs after 4 attempts?

If you've requested your maximum of 3 replacement PINs (total of 4 PINs sent) and still haven't received any after 3 weeks from your last request, Google provides an alternative verification method.⁷

You'll usually see an option to verify your address by uploading a government-approved ID document that clearly shows your name and address (matching your AdSense account details). This could be an Aadhar Card (for Indian users), passport, driver's license, bank statement, or telephone bill, depending on your country's requirements.

To do this:

1. Go to your AdSense account.

2. Navigate to the section for address verification (often under "Payments" then "Verification check").⁸

3. Look for an option to upload documents or use the PIN troubleshooter which will guide you to this alternative method.

4. Fill out the form and upload the scanned copy of your document. Ensure the image quality is good and all details are legible.

It's vital to resolve PIN verification to ensure you continue receiving payments from AdSense.
