Payouts to Canada broken

Briefly describe your issue:
Not able to connect Uphold to Brave for payouts. Upon login Uphold says region is not supported.

What Operating System and Brave version are you using? (Menu --> About Brave)
Windows 11 → Version 1.63.165

Who is your verified custodian? (Uphold/Gemini/bitFlyer)
Not able to add Uphold - the only supported one for Canada

Are you in a supported region? (see here for list of supported regions)
Yes, Canada

@jwalantsoneji just to be clear, Uphold tells you that your region is not supported or you’re getting the Region Not Supported message when you’re trying to connect to Uphold from Brave Rewards?

The reason I ask is if it’s the latter, I’m assuming the reason is you aren’t originally from Canada. The API that is used to communicate between Brave and Uphold uses your passport to share what country you’re from. If you created an Uphold account with a passport from a country that isn’t on the list at https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/6539887971469 then you’d get the message not supported. You would need to get a Canadian passport and have Uphold update that. A change of address through Uphold is not good enough due to the API using the passport.
