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,

Hi. I'm new to here. I'll really appreciate if someone can check if my account is approved so I can get to work. There is a congratulations message on my profile stating I'm now part of Upwork but I didn't receive any email to that effect. So I'm a little bit confused since I read I should. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks

I guess there should be a mark on my name to show I have been approved but no mark yet and I have completed my profile.

It took around a day before I was aware I had been approved. You should get an email from them if you've been approved. Try checking that to make sure.

Nevermind, you've been approved. I can see your account

Also, I'm so happy to see another Nigerian freelancer! I lived in Ogun State, Nigeria for 2 years while attending secondary school.

Hi Alexis,

It's good to be here too, I'm presently in Ogun too..

The rule says:

"If you are a new freelancer and don't earn money on Upwork within 90 days of your first proposal, or you choose not to submit a proposal within your first 90 days, your profile will also change to private."

 

I recently, before 6 days on 14-May, have submitted a job proposal which is within first 90 days of making my profile public.

My profile was set to private this morning. If anyone can explain why?

Hi Manraj,

 

I’ve reset your profile visibility back to public. Just so that you are aware, profiles of freelancers with a history of earnings on the platform will remain public unless they have not earned in more than 2 years. Profiles of new freelancers who haven’t earned on Upwork will be set to private after 90 days.To avoid this, you can resume earnings on a new contract or upgrade your membership to the Plus plan. You can check out more info about this here. Thank you.

Thank you Goran for the promt help.

I am not sure if my Upwork account is approved. How could I check that or it would be good if one of the moderators could check for me? Thx in advance.

Hi,

I did not receive any email that my account is Live already, can you please verify on your end that it is indeed a live account?

Thanks for the assistance!

Hi Ebeth,

 

I checked your account, and it looks like you have already submitted proposals. This means that your account is active. Please let us know that if you need any assistance. Thanks!

Hi There! 

 

I would like to inform you that I have been trying to get my profile approved for many times. I now have a client that wants to employ me via Upwork but cannot do so because it states that; "This freelancer is not available for invitations and offers." Please help me with my concern. I hope to hear from you soon. 

 

Thank you, 

Jessy

that is because your profile is not approved. Your "client" can use the "bring my own freelancer" function and hire you that way, but that will allow you to work with that client only. It will not change the fact that your profile has been rejected and that you are not able to work with any other client.
