Hi, I created a project on 08 Sep 2022, My project is not being approved.
Anyone can tell me when my projects will be approved?

Hi Bojan, this problem also occurred with me, i've submitted my completed catalog on 26th aug, & upwork says it takes maximum 5days, after that they will approve or discard the catalog with proper reasons, but it's 1st September & my catalog isn't approved yet & upwork isn't replied if my catalog is rejected. Please review this concern, i appreciate your time, thank you.

Hello! I understand that the Upwork team is currently swamped with reviewing a multitude of projects, and I hope this message finds you well. I submitted a project on March 21st and it is still pending as of April 4th. I was wondering if there's any way the community could lend a hand? As an archviz artist, I would be more than happy to help review projects and provide my expertise. Perhaps Upwork could offer free connects as a way to motivate other artists to assist as well. Thank you for considering this suggestion, and I appreciate all the hard work you do to ensure a smooth and efficient platform.

Dear Bojan,
I've created two projects and met all the guidlines to the best of my knowledge but neither my projects got approved nor did I receive any kind of updates on them when will they get accepted?
Kindly resolve my issue
Apr 10, 2023 06:07:58 AM by Mukadus J
What about pendings ? Why does it take so long to approve a project. As upwork company is not small so they should handle it quickly? Or put some techniques that can analyze the projects quickly as the world is surrounding with AI isnt it time that upwork should try some too?
Apr 10, 2023 07:43:29 AM by Arjay M

Hi Bojan, I never used unprofessional pictures. Few months back I used an expired medicine and my face looked terrible. So the only option I have is to use the pictures I already have. Is there any solution to this?

Hi all,
I created three projects, and two of them were rejected more than once asking for updating the projects according to some feedback. I searched here and there a lot for the feedback to know what is the problem with my projects but I couldn't find the feedback. Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi, I am trying to create a project using the project catalog. My project has been rejected twice because the photo I uploaded does not meet requirements. I am puzzled by this because I replaced the photo with a designed logo before I submitted my project for review the second time. My project is for transcription. Can anyone possibly tell me what kind of photo I should be uploading so I may try and submit my project again.
Many thanks
Kirsty
Apr 29, 2021 01:28:08 PM by Andrea G
Hi Kirsty,
The intention is that the images support the project by making it look more professional and represent the type of work or service being offered. It's best to use images with minimal text. You can check sites like www.canva.com or www.unsplash.com to help you find or create great images to represent your work and skills!
Apr 29, 2021 02:00:33 PM by Kirsty B
Hi Andrea,
Thank you for your advice. I tried to make my photo look more professional by creating a logo however this was also rejected. I'm really struggling to think of an image which would represent my transcription services and be approved. If you could possibly suggest the type of image which is required.
Thanks
Kirsty
Apr 29, 2021 02:51:37 PM by Andrea G
Kirsty, I wouldn't be able to advise any specifics. It might be a good idea to perform a search of existing Catalog projects in your category for some inspiration on what kind of image you could create for your own project.
Apr 29, 2021 03:13:03 PM by Kirsty B
Hi Andrea, thank you so much for your reply. Your information has been very helpful. Thanks for all your help.
