Have you been asked by YouTube to submit additional documentation to claim rights?

Question is caused by these help articles:
"GETTING STARTED AS A YOUTUBE PARTNER
What kind of content can I monetize?" and
"Submit additional documentation to claim rights"

As I understand, I may see an exclamation mark next to my videos and then I will have to submit additional documents which will be reviewed by YT staff. Is it correct? Did you have any experience with this?

yes once in awhile they will do this, I haven't seen one like @JohnKenShow said in at least 3 months on my channel but we have 2 totally different channels so i'm not sure fully how they do these checks. But basically what will happen is this, you will get an email stating (you need to provide more information to monetize your video) and it will give you 14 days or the monetization feature on the video will be disabled (only that video). The forum is very simple though it will just ask you for a description which I usually just put how I was given rights to record and monetize the video and they will ask you to take a screenshot of the company giving you rights to it (make sure it says to record and monetize in it) and then that's basically it, it gets reviewed and it will either go through and the video will be monetized again OR it will send you another email stating that you still need more information but i've only had that once and I was able to settle it with youtube so none of that is a big deal SO LONG AS YOU MAKE SURE YOU ASK FOR RIGHTS TO THE STUFF YOU USE
 
I had it when I started my monetization but my impression is that you can build up a reputation.
 
Normally those documents they want arise from when you monetise videos where the full content of the video is not your own - so they need to see you have the correct permissions to do so. If the documentation is for EA (i hope not) good luck as they are the hardest company to get permissions for.

Thanks but this is just a theoretical question as of now, - want to be prepared in case I am asked to provide the documents. :)

No worries :) if its gaming you might want to save yourself the hassle of the legal permissions rubbish and get yourself signed with a Gaming Network - i will warn you don't chose the biggest game networks to joint if your a new channel. (i learnt this the hard way lol) :D
 
happened a long time ago, which was a big annoyance because it was a video that I made my own music and visuals and everything so i basically had to explain 'what do you want? me to sign a document by me giving me the rights to my stuff?'
