My advice to all is to create images of three ID documents, driver's license, passport, and a third identification id prior to start this process. The system will allow you to take photo images, but it's faster to upload your own quality images that you have prepared. If you follow the indicated steps, it will be easy. Also, be patient, yes, it's a waiting time prior to your video conference. It should be okay.
