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,

 

I recently re-submitted my Upwork profile for approval. But I did not receive any email communication or notification whether my account was approved or not. Though my account status was changed to 'public' and I am able to submit proposals. Can anyone provide clarity on the same? 

 

Regards,

Priya Abraham

Hi Mark,

 

Please keep in mind that our review process can take up to 48 hours. Once the review is completed our team will reach out to you with the results.

I would also like to clarify that opening more than one account is a violation of our TOS. Freelancers are allowed to have only one account. Thank you.

Amazing how many writers in the voice-over category had the same idea for their overview text!

I did not even know that writers do voice overs! I guess it's such a specific niche market that they can command their 400$ per hour rate.
