How can I know that my profile is approved?

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

Hi I created a new profile today ,but when i hit the review application button, it redirects to the same create profile page. I tried in incognito mode or for that matter tried it in a different browser but the issue remained same.

I did try everything but the result is still the same. The page is redirecting back to the create profile page only.

Hello,

 

So for the past two days, my profile did not get varified, and finally today morning I got the replied and it got rejected. I made some changes again and then submitted it again, and it got sent for verification, but now it does not show me a message on top of my feed saying "Profile is under verification and we'll get back to you in 24h".

 

I did not even get a mail or anything regarding verification or anything. So I wanted to know if my profile got verified or not.

 

Thank you.

Hi Ella,

 

Your city is still missing from your address and that is the reason why you can't submit your application for a review. Please add your city on your profile and click on the green button Review Application. Thank you.

Hi Ajay, 

 

I checked your account and I can see that you are yet to submit your profile for review. You need to click the review application button to make sure you did not miss any section of the profile creation process. Any portion that is highlighted in red needs to be filled-in. Please review your application and update the missing fields to be able to submit your profile for review. In this case, please update the city field and resubmit your profile for review. 

 

Once you submit your profile, it takes at least 24 to 48-hours for the process to complete and you will be notified via email about your account.

I recently joined upwork because I found some interesting jobs. I did all my application and entered all my data and have been waiting for more than 2 weeks. I dont get any feedback from upwork and the bot is not really helping me out.

 

How long does it take to get accepted ?
