Excel Facts

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
cannot see from the info provided
you are looking in column A for a match on 3 different sheets
and then if there is a match , return the value in column C

so
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,'Verify Accounts'!A:Z,3,0),"")
returns mike
check that the value in A1 , also exits in column A on the other sheets
no spaces before or after

Since your formulas are wrapped in IFERROR, and the IFERROR is set to return blank if there is an error, it seems likely that the formulas in U1 and U3 are returning errors. Try removing the IFERROR part and see what happens.

vlookup only looks in column A based on how you have written it NOT column B or D or O

what column do you want to return for this formula
=VLOOKUP(A1,'Members Status'!A:Z,3,0)

you need to change to look in column B
=VLOOKUP(A1,'Members Status'!B:Z,3,0)
will return column D as has a 3 , so 3 columns from B including B

But maybe better to describe what you are trying to do with full details for each formula
