Meet AdSense Programme Policies in Google AdSense Account

If the Google AdSense account is created after the second half of 2021, basically most of the responses from Google AdSense after reviewing the site will mention the reason for rejection (if website is rejected by AdSense).

However, recently one of my Blogger sites received a rejection response from AdSense that is not like the others. Instead, the rejections the site received were identical to the reply I received in the emails from AdSense in late 2019.

Whether you are using Blogger or WordPress to apply for Google AdSense, when the application is rejected for review, the email sent by AdSense should look like this:

However, this Blogger site of mine received this response:

Your application status
Thank you for your interest in AdSense. After reviewing your application, our specialists have found that it does not meet our programme criteria. Therefore, we are unable to accept you into our programme.
Our AdSense programme policies are designed to ensure the effectiveness of Google ads for our publishers as well as for our advertisers. We review all publishers and we reserve the right to decline any application. If you are able to make changes to meet our programme criteria, you may reapply for AdSense in the future.
Please note that we may not be able to respond to enquiries regarding the specific reasons for our decision. Thank you for your understanding.
Thanks,
The Google AdSense Team

Usually after a website is rejected by Google AdSense, the applicant can find the exact problem(s) in the Google AdSense account's sites list.

However, if the email received after the site was rejected by Google AdSense is not similar to what I have shown with a male standing there, you will receive such message in the Google AdSense account.

Google AdSense Tutorial - How to apply for a Google AdSense account?

Google AdSense will remind you here that your website need to meet AdSense programme policies in order to be approved by Google AdSense. However, this is a very strange thing.

After Google AdSense has undergone several major changes, most Google AdSense accounts are now able to display the reason for rejection after they rejected the websites for monetization.

For example, Google AdSense will provide policy violations they found and provide some advice and guidelines for applicants.

I'll give you an example here, if your site doesn't have enough content, or it's still new, or most of the articles aren't crawled and indexed by Google, then Google AdSense will rejected a website with "Google-served ads on screens without publisher-content".

This "Google-served ads on screens without publisher-content" is a problem that most sites will face, especially for newbies, and probably this problem will appear in first few AdSense applications.

Logically, this Blogger site of mine should have the same problem, rather than just meet AdSense programme policies.

However, I think I finally find out why the rejections I received were not the same as before .

Your application status - not eligible for AdSense's program

When I checked the settings of this Google AdSense account, I found out that it is different from other AdSense accounts created at the same time.

The home page of a normal Google AdSense account

This is the home page of a Google AdSense account that doesn't show the exact reason

And this problem arises from personal payment information, which I may made a mistake when filling in the registered address weeks before.

However, when I try to change the address or verify the phone number, I can't change the "We have obtained your information" on the Google AdSense account homepage to "Your information is complete" .

So, I think if there is a mistake when registering a Google AdSense account, it will cause a difference in the payment box on the home page of AdSense account. Then the best way is to delete your personal payment profile in your AdSense account and then create a new Google AdSense account with a new Gmail account.
