Hi Dee Ann Jo,

 

Thank you for your message and welcome to Upwork! I'm happy to report that your profile has been approved. You can check this on your end by trying to submit a proposal. If you’re able to submit proposals, it means your profile was approved!

Hi Mike! I would also like to ask if my profile is already approved or not. Furthermore, I would like to ask on how to be a verified account, with the blue badge beside the username. Should I do many projects in order for me to obtain it? I would like to know more about that concern. Thank you and have a good day!

Hi Angelica,

 

I checked and it looks like your account has already been accepted. You should be able to send proposals for jobs on the general marketplace. Please make sure you check the resources in this post to help you get started. 

 

We’re slowly rolling ID verified badges out to all freelancers over the next few months. Once you become eligible for this badge, you’ll be notified when you log into Upwork. You’ll then be asked to complete the verification process by uploading an official government-issued ID and meeting with us for a short video call.

Thank you

Pradeep

Great, thank you for the help. I have another issue. I try to update my address and the error is:

In order to change your address to the United States, you must first provide your W-9 tax information here.
The W-9 is completely filled out. What is the problem?
