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

Hello!

 

i am having a issue recently in my payment method,

I put my sister's Bank account but it's not accepted, this is the message i got : 

"Payment method verification in progress

Your payment method has been deactivated because the beneficiary name on your payment method does not match the name on your Upwork account."

QUESTION : Can i still have a transactions/deal with my client even i don't have yet a payment method linked on my account ? because i have an ongoing transaction. please help.  i need more information. 

Thank you. your response is very much appreciated.

Hi Keiser,

 

You'd still be able to work with your client but you won't be able to withdraw your earnings until a payment method has been successfully added. Please, note that you must be listed as the account holder or authorized signer, in order for you to add it. Feel free to check this help article for more information and also check here to learn about the available payment methods.

 

Thank you.

Hi,

  I am facing problem to do identity verification for my profile . It is showing "

You don't currently have access to this page "

 

  https://www.upwork.com/ab/identity-verification/

 

 Please look after this issues , so that I can verified my both identity verification .

Hi Alok,

 

I checked your account, but I was not able to find any request from the team that you need to complete the ID verification process. If you are required, you’ll be notified upon log in to complete the verification process by uploading a non-expired government-issued photo ID and meeting with us for a short video call. At this time, only earning freelancers are required to earn the “Identity Verified” badge. If you become required, we will notify you when you log into your Upwork account.
