My profile is still under review as well. One of the moderators said they have a backlog so it'll take longer than the usual to get the profiles approved.

Thanks in Advance

 

Good to have you Husain here! Welcome. At least I can see your profile loud and clearl. Maybe it got approved already.

 

Things may take some time usually. But, with persistence they usually get resolved sooner or later. Getting your profile in shape is just the first step, now, go ahead and send out some nice proposals and I hope soon you will have a nice steady flow of customer projects going on.

 

Good luck!

 

Thanks christo for your prompt support. I am in

Hi, How would I know if my profile has been approved or not? I was seeing a notice on my page saying that I'm waiting for approval but I don't see that anymore. I also did not receive any notification or email whether I got approved or not. Is there anywhere in my account I can check, like a mark or my status? Thank you in advance

Hi Bryan,

Good news! Your account has been approved.

Hi, That's really good to hear. Thank you

Hello maam,

It has been 12hours but there is no sign if i'm approved or not. The star sign or the thing says "Your account is still in review wait within 12hours" is already gone. I'm wondering what my status is right now.

Christel,


It looks like your profile has already been accepted and you should be able to apply for jobs on Upwork.

 

Thank you.

My account hasn't been approved yet and it's been more than 12 hours.

I tried to submit a helpdesk request, but it wouldn't let me submit what I was writing. There's an extremely relevant job posting I'd like to pursue, but obviously cannot until my profile is approved...

Hello all,

 

I signed up for Upwork yesterday. After signing into my account for the first time, I noticed a bar at the top of my profile saying that my profile is under review, you should hear back within 12 hours. Its been a little over 24 hours now. I am eager to get started with upwork. Does anyone have any idea why they'd say 12 hours when it has taken longer than that? Thanks for your help!

Thank you!

After submitting my profile for review for the second time, the status hasn't been updated after 24 hours. On my "Find Work" page it states that it will take 12 hours, while on my "Profile" page it states 24, both of which have passed.

Hey Ariful,

 

Though I'm not the one to approve your profile, I can give you some advice that may be useful. First of all, don't try to do everything you have a basic knowledge how to do. Go with your strongest skill. And I guess you need to improve your English skills before working as a writer.
One more thing that I notice everywhere, work is not ONLY to earn money. Enjoy it!

 

Hi Ariful,

Your profile has been already accepted, happy UpWorking.
