Hey Goran,

 

Can you please tell me that my profile is approved or not? As I'm not able to see any status on top and haven't received any mail yet!

My profile says I have not been approved yet but does not say if it has been submitted for approval, or what further information is needed.

 

Can I get a status check please?

Hi Wesley, 

It looks like the team reached out to you in 2015 with more information on why your profile registration was rejected at that time. I would recommend uploading a headshot photo of yourself and updating your profile title to clearly describe your skills and experience. 

Here's a great guide for a perfect profile picture. This is also a great resource for tips on how to create a profile that stands out. Once you've edited your profile, please resubmit it for the team's review.

How do you “re-submit” the profile for review?

Hi Wesley,

 

One of our team members will reach out to you directly via a support ticket to assist you further with your account. Please note that a copy of the ticket will arrive in your email as well from where you can continue the correspondence with our team.

 

Thank you.

Hi Diamond,

 

Looks like you successfully submitted your profile for the review just recently. 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 in your Upwork account with an update about your profile registration.

Hi, 

I would like to know why my account is still not yet approved? What should be done to accomplish that? I can't buy connects and can't choose any membership plan. 

Hi Artem,

 

Just to confirm, you`re referring to your freelancer profile membership plan? If yes, since you`re an exclusive member of the agency you can only send proposals under the agency and use the connects of the agency.

In order to be able to send proposals as an independent freelancer, your status will need to be changed to a non-exclusive member. Thank you.

Hi!  I'm wondering why my account has been marked as not accepted when it was approved a few weeks ago; I'm not getting any messages explaining what the problem is when I resubmit my profile.

 

Thanks!

Ivan

Hi,

Should I wait for my account to be approved before I purchase membership?

 

Filip

Hi Filip,

 

Your account was already accepted. Feel free to start bidding on projects and upgrade your membership plan. Please make sure you check resources in this post to help you get started.

Hi Karina,

 

I reviewed your account and you have created a client account, rather than a freelancer account. To create a freelancer account, please follow these steps:

  1. Go to Settings > My Info and enter your complete address.
  2. At the bottom of the My Info page, click on the green "Create New Account" button.
  3. In the pop-up, click "+ New Freelancer Account" and follow the steps to create your freelancer profile.

I hope this helps!


Cheers,
Mike
