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 am a new member of Upwork. One trouble problem that I cannot fix success after I finished my profile which is about my profile is under review. Thank you!

Hi Yan,

 

Thanks for reaching out. We have a team dedicated to reviewing new profiles. The profile review process may take 24 hours to complete from the time you submitted it for review. You will be notified of the status of your profile approval. Once your profile is accepted, you can start submitting proposals.

Hello everyone,

 

Everytime I try to submit my profile to Upwork, which allows my applicaiton to go under review, A box pops up saying that something has gone wrong and I must contact customer support. I haven't been accepted or rejected because Upwork will not submit my profile even though I have filled out the employment background, education, etc. I live in the USA, I am of age, and I check out for legal concerns, so I don't understand why Upwork won't allow me to take the next step and either get rejected or accepted.  How do I move forward to get my application submitted?

Hi Joana, 


I checked your profile and can see that there seems to be a recurring issue in the Employment and Education section of your profile. Could you please edit out these errors in your profile and let me know if the issue persists?

I'm getting "Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again or contact support." when submitting a new account and "Error: Submit failed" in the developer console. Any ideas as to how I can remedy this?

How can I check that my profile was approved ?

I haven't received any confirmation email that my account has been approved. But I see that I am able to submit proposals. So does that mean that my profile has been approved?
