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! 

 

Here are some resources I compiled to help you get started on Upwork; I suggest you review each of them carefully:

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?

Hi Melanie,

 

I can see that the team in charge of your concern already reached out to you via email with instructions on how to update your address. Feel free to communicate with our team through that email or this support ticket if you need further assistance.

Thank you for the advice. now I have completed my profile as stated in the guide. please be able to check again

Dear Mike J:

Thanks for guiding to get into the Upwork and make more value in this plateform.

 

IS there any confirmation will come from upwork team so that your profile is approved ?

 

Is there only one way to know that your profile approved after submitting the proposal ?

 

Can any experienced freelancer can guide in this regards.

Regards.

Faraz Ahmad.

Is my account active? Can clients see the proposals that I have submitted? 

I am sure your account is active as it is visible if you click on it from here, so I imagine  your proposals are being seen by clients. 

 

Sherine,  you have an impressive profile, but to begin with remove the reference to data entry, as this attracts scammers to newcomers. Once you are established, it is fine to add it. As you are starting out on Upwork, please, for your own peace of mind, read this thread, which will help you understand how to use the site, and gives you tips to avoid questionable jobs: https://community.upwork.com/t5/New-to-Upwork/Getting-Started-on-Upwork/m-p/264214#M2460

Hi Sherine,
