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

How can I know that my profile is approved? I haven't received any emails from upwork if my account has been approved or not. Thank You.

Open your profile, check and see if it says submit profile for review. IF you dont have that and it allows you to customise and submit proposals then you may have been approved. However, you generally get an email telling you if you have been approved or not. Check your spam folder
