Can't connect to iTunes Connect

[you]

When I try to log into iTunes Connect with my Apple ID, I get the message

"Apple ID does not have permission to access iTunes Connect."

I've searched and found two solutions, neither of which apply to me:
1) User had same string for username and password, changed password and then it worked. This is stupid: my password is different from my username.
2) Someone from UK didn't have a state entered for their address, so they added one and then were able to log in. I'm in Canada, so I have a province selected. Could this possibly be the problem?

Has anyone had a similar experience? Did you fix it?

Edit: I found out my email address was unverified, so I verified it to see if that would work but I still cannot log in.
