Just saw people stressing about the Pi KYC deadline and honestly, it's not as complicated as everyone makes it sound. Been through the verification process myself and it's pretty straightforward if you just prep your stuff beforehand.

Basically you need a valid government ID and proof of address - nothing fancy. The key is taking decent photos that are clear and well-lit, not blurry shots. Then you upload them in the Pi app and they give you options like facial recognition or video recording depending on what they need.

The whole pi kyc verification thing took me less than a day, though I've heard it can take a few days depending on how backed up they are. Just don't spam multiple submissions like some people do - that apparently makes it worse. Double-check everything before you hit submit and you should be fine.

With 160 days left on the clock, there's still time but might as well get your pi kyc sorted now instead of panicking later. Anyone else done this recently? How long did your verification actually take?
