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 Barbara, and Adam,

 

Barbara, I checked your account and can see that you have recently submitted it for the team's review. Please allow up to 48 hours for the review to be complete. Once you are all set, you should be able to start bidding for jobs in the Upwork marketplace.

 

Adam, could you please let me know if you are referring to a different account? If so, could you please send me a PM with the username and email address of your account? I'll check that for you and assist you accordingly.

Thank you.

If there is no alert on the top of your screen, click a job post and check the 'Submit Proposal' button. If it's green and active for use, then you're accepted. Yet, I suggest you look at your spam posts and Upwork notifications.

Hello All,

 

I've signed up for UpWork on December 20 but I haven't got any feedback since then. I have already checked my spam folder but still nothing. What could be the problem?

 

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

 

thanks for the quick reply. I have filled in the City name 5 times since my registration, I always resend the profile for review, but still nothing happens. I'm going to try your advice, I'll come back if it doesn't work. 

 

Thanks again,

Réka

Are you sure you actually submitted it for review?

Hi Sathish, 

 

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.
