ID verification no longer in Instant Book

Does anyone know what's going on? On the desktop and app it is gone in optional instant book settings. The only thing that is there is good track record. This isn't really a positive thing unless Airbnb is making identification mandatory for everyone.

@Jennifer2670  I think they are making ID mandatory for everyone.

Weren't changes not getting made in December? If so I'm really concerned with no overlap.

It's ok on my desktop, the thing I was worrying about is guest who are using airbnb for the first time, the "Good Track Record" they dont have, my last guest had been a member for 3 years but never used it until she booked my listing, IB1.png

It's giving me a tough time uploading image but I'm missing the identity verification on both  app & desktop. I hope it gets fixed before I get another Instant Book.  I take brand new guests but it's through request only,  which helps me figure out if there are red flags or we're not a good fit.

@Jennifer2670I just checked and my app and desktop are like yours- only Good Track Record now
