How would I know if I got approved? I haven't received any email and it's been 3 days now.

I haven't received any email. Is my account approved? How can I find it out?

[Lerma E]

Is it possible that a client can send me an invitation to apply even if my account isn't approved yet?

I have this prospective client whom I met in person and asked me to send an application via Upwork. So to comply, I created an account here. However it says it has yet to be approved. Is there a way that I can soon send my application to him?

Thank you.

Hi Lerma,

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 to your Upwork account to update you about your approval status.
