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

Hey guys. I don't have enough connects because and when I try to buy them it says my profile is not approved. I'm confused as to why it says my account is not approved since I have been able to send proposals to jobs before. How do I check if my account is approved or not?

Hi Tiro,

 

You're an exclusive member of the agency, this means you can only work on projects under the agency.
If you would like to work as an independent freelancer as well, the agency owner will need to change your status to a Non-Exclusive member. If you have any additional questions let me know.

 

Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I'm here helping out my wife.

I've sent the ticket here about it a month ago.
https://community.upwork.com/t5/Freelancers/Please-let-me-know-my-thought-is-correct-or-not/m-p/6442...
She created it according to Dear Mr.Bojan's advice of Upwork.

But, 24 hours later, she has not received any replay so far.

When she logged in to her account it says "You should hear back within 24 hours. You will be able to submit proposals once your profile is approved."
Does anyone have an idea on how to resolve this?

My wife's profile is **Edited for Community Guidelines**

Thanks!
