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 all,

This thread has been closed from further replies due to its size. Please know that you can check if your profile has been approved on your end by trying to submit a proposal. If you’re able to submit proposals, it means your profile was approved! 

 

We appreciate your participation in the Community and welcome you to continue the conversation here.

Thank you!

Hi Ken,

 

I checked with the team and they requested that you please check your Employment History. When they reviewed your profile, some entries are all in capital letters. Once you have updated it, please let us know. Thank you!

Profile updated- pls review

Ken

Hi Ken,

 

Thank you for following up. 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.

Hello!

 

I recently created my account. I haven't recieved an answer to whether or not my account has been approved. Where can I see this information? I've been able to submit proposals and my account seems to have regular functionality. Sorry if this question has been asked many times. I appreciate your help.

Hi Caleb,

 

If you're able to send proposals, then it means your profile is approved. Happy Upworking!!

Thank you for your reply. Have a wonderful day.

Hi Demiana,

Just to confirm that your application haven't been submitted for a review, if you`re ready please go to the bottom of the page and click on Review Application.

Thank you so much for your help

Hi! I just created my profile and I didn't get a confirmation page or anything so I wanted to make sure all is ok/saved (don't want to spend another hour putting all my employment history...). Thanks so much for your help!

The message I get on the top of the page is: 

If your profile is approved, it will become the public profile you’ll use to market your freelance business to clients (you can edit it after approval).

 

And this is what I see at the bottom of the page:

See what your profile will look like to prospective clients if your application to join is approved.

Hello. I created my profile a week ago, but it hasn't been approved yet. When I log in, I can only see my profile and this message:

"If your profile is approved, it will become the public profile you’ll use to market your freelance business to clients (you can edit it after approval)."

Can somebody help me with this? How long does it normally take for a profile to be accepted/rejected?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks! I had to use a different browser, but I was finally able to upload my profile.

Hi, 

How will I know if my profile has been approved or not? 
Is there a badge or something given by Upwork?

Thank you.
Waiting for a response.

Hi Fiona, 

 

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.

It takes about 24 hours so give it a bit more time.
