  2. Can you not have a status marker in the profile information so new users know whether or not they have been approved?

Hello,

 

I recently finished and applied my profile on Upwork. How can I tell if I have been approved?

 

Thank you,

Your account is approved and you can start sending proposals when you`re ready. If you have any additional questions let me know. Thank you.

Hello! I've completed my profile and I want to get it approved. If I press at the bottom on "Review Application" it refreshes the page but I don't see any sign that my profile is currently under review. Can anyone help with this? Thanks, Ralf

Hi Markus,

Thanks, it worked with using Chrome instead of Brave browser.

Seems like there is a bug in Brave as the drop-down list of "City" does not pop up and there is no error message if the city is just written.

How will my account be aproved?

Yes, it has. Congrats and welcome.

Hi Imran,

 

Looks like you successfully submitted your profile for the review. 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 profile approval status.

 

Thank you.

I have the same outstanding issue.

 

Hi Stephen,

 

Your city is missing from your address. Please add your city in the "City" field and submit your application. Thank you.

Thank you Goran. I keep adding it in, submitting, then it refreshes the page and the city field is empty.

It looks like it has been approved, but I'm quite sure that like most mistakes, this one can be rectified.

 

Hey,

 

I have filled out every section of "Create your profile" but every time I click on "review application", it loads for 2 seconds and then goes back to the same page where at the bottom I can click on "review application" again and again and again. And there are no missing fields or any red marks. 

I already cleared my cache and cookies but no luck.

 

What can I do? 

Hi Lejla,

 

One of our team members will reach out to you directly to assist you with completing your application form and submit it for the review.

 

Thank you for reaching out to us!

I'm new to upwork. I don't know if my profile has been accepted/verified or not. I understand that there is supposed to be a 24 hour period of waiting but it looks like my account is ready, I'm just not sure.

Hey guys. I don't have enough connects because and when I try to buy them it says my profile is not approved. I'm confused as to why it says my account is not approved since I have been able to send proposals to jobs before. How do I check if my account is approved or not?

Hi Tiro,

 

You're an exclusive member of the agency, this means you can only work on projects under the agency.
If you would like to work as an independent freelancer as well, the agency owner will need to change your status to a Non-Exclusive member. If you have any additional questions let me know.

 

Thank you.

Thank you very much Aleksandar. This does Clarify things for me. Have a good day.

Hi everyone,

I'm here helping out my wife.

I've sent the ticket here about it a month ago.
https://community.upwork.com/t5/Freelancers/Please-let-me-know-my-thought-is-correct-or-not/m-p/6442...
She created it according to Dear Mr.Bojan's advice of Upwork.

But, 24 hours later, she has not received any replay so far.

When she logged in to her account it says "You should hear back within 24 hours. You will be able to submit proposals once your profile is approved."
Does anyone have an idea on how to resolve this?

My wife's profile is **Edited for Community Guidelines**

Thanks!

Hi David,
