Question

Why won't YouTube allow me to link my AdSense account?

Community Answer

It could be that you are underage. If that's not the case, phone verification could also be your issue. Before adding ads to your video and making money off of videos, you need to turn in a lot of legal documents. If you haven't gone through that process yet, I will tell you that is 100% the reason why. If you are under 18, you will have to get your parents' permission to use AdSense.

Can I change my AdSense country name?

Community Answer

No you cannot change country name. It's against Google policies. YouTube has different terms & policies for different countries.
