Hi Muhammad,
I`m sorry to hear for the inconvenience this has caused you. I would like to clarify that if a contract has no activity it will be closed automatically after 90 days. If you have completed your tasks/work you will need to submit your work on the milestone created for you. If no actions are taken on the client's end, after 14 days the funds will be released to you.
You can also reach out to your client with a polite reminder about your pending tasks or close the contract from your end at any time. Thank you.

I don't care about the ship I know that it has sailed but she still has money deposited in the escrow account. She hasn't withdrawn the money. though has wasted my time initial 2 or 3 days

She can't "withdraw" the money. Upwork will close the contract and the funds will go back to the client automatically at 90 days. What exactly is your concern?
If your profile is set to private you simply click on the "Reset Profile Visibility" button here and it is set back to public.

Martina P. the problem is not about the Job. The problem is that she is not responding and the work is still pending and Upwork is warning me to complete the task. but she hasn't online since 20 Aug 2020

Hi Bojan
could you please guide me on 1 thing as well
I was hired by an Australian client in august
I got interviewed and everything went through very well I signed NDA and she deposited the money in Upwork escrow account and I accepted the contract on Upwork
she supposed to send me the detail of the work
I made up my schedule and made myself available for her but she didn't show up to send me detail of the work. I rescheduled everything for her but still, he didn't respond to my messages. From her interview, I did what I could and did some market research the way she wanted. I wasted almost my 10 days waiting for her she is still not responding to my message
and I think she left Upwork or something I don't know I didn't saw her online
she was a reputable client on Upwork and spend more than 20k on Upwork
What should I do its been 3 months now should I submit work for payment ?

Hello fellow freelancer
my client gave me a task
I have completed that task about 2 months ago
for 2 months my client disappeared
should I submit work for payment
I heard that if I submit work for payment will be automatically transferred to my account. and what if she doesn't. and will it affect my status on Upwork. what if she didn't like what I did ( submitting work for payment ) will she be able to give me a bad feedback

You always click submit for payment when you send the work. The client does not need to respond, but they have 14 days to request changes. If they don't they are either happy or don't care any longer about the task.

Muhammad:
Clients are not required to "appear" or respond to freelancers.
So I would never think of a client as having "disappeared."
The important thing is that I can always do my work and get paid.
re: "I have completed that task about 2 months ago"
If I had completed that task 2 months ago, I would have been paid a month and a half ago. The money would already be in my bank account.
Because I would have clicked the "Submit Work and Request Payment" button as soon as I finished the task.
That is what you should have done.
re: "will she be able to give me a bad feedback?"
If she has disappeared then I would have already received my pay, and I would have already closed the contract, and there would be NO bad feedback.

Your profile will be made private after a certain time if there is no activity such as getting new jobs, getting paid, etc. It has NOTHING to do with this specific job, so you might as well stop obsessing about it.
