How can I know that my profile is approved?

[strategizebiz]

Hello,

1. I would like to know if my profile has been aprroved....?
2. Can you not have a status marker in the profile information so new users know whether or not they have been approved?

Thx,

Melissa

Simple way to check: check your connects balance. Do they display 0 or 60? If they display 0, you aren't yet approved. If they display 60, congrats!

The review process takes 24 hours from the time you submitted your profile for review. Once the process is complete, you will receive an email and a notification to your Upwork account to update you about your approval status. 

Thank you for your patience.

Same question! I set up my account about a week ago and I've never received an email saying my application was either approved or declined.

Hello,

I'm new here at upwork, and I created my account here yesterday. I filled all informations needed to send an application .The problem is, that I send it yesterday and I still haven't got any message yet about status of accepting my account.

Can someone from upwork team check it out?

[g_vasilevski]

Hi Tomasz,

I checked your account and I can confirm that you haven't submitted your application for a review. 
Before submitting it for a review I can advice you set your profile as an independent freelancer, if you would like to work as a team once your application is approved you can open an agency. Thank you.
