How can I know that my profile is approved?

Hi Sean, 

I checked your account, and can confirm that your account registration has been accepted. Welcome to Upwork!

I highly recommend that you read up on the freelancer resources we have compiled, for great tips and insights on how you can work successfully on the platform. Please also pay attention to the Safety First! section of the resources, and these tips for avoiding questionable jobs for more information about working safely through Upwork.

Hopefully this helps you familiarize yourself with Upwork. Good luck!

Hello,

I have been creating my profile last week, with all information required.

I have then clicked on "Review Application"... but since then, when I log in, it only comes back to the profile and indicates "If your profile is approved, it will become the public profile you’ll use to market your freelance business to clients (you can edit it after approval)."

Could you possibly let me know what should I do to get my profile confirmed and move forward to get some freelance work please?

Thank you,

Geraldine

Hi Geraldine,

Thanks for reaching out to us. I checked your account and I can see that you are yet to submit your profile for review. You need to click the review application button to make sure you did not miss any section of the profile creation process. Any portion that is highlighted in red needs to be filled-in. Please review your application and update the missing fields to be able to submit your profile for review. In this case, please update the city field and resubmit your profile for review. 

Once you submit your profile, it takes at least 24 to 48-hours for the process to complete and you will be notified via email about your account.

Thank you.

Hello, 

Can I know if my profile is activated? I have submitted it and it looks all fine - I can send proposals, I have connections, but I never got confirmation e-mail, so I just want to be sure.

Thank you!

[Goran V]

Hi Atanas,

Yes your profile is approved and you can start sending proposals when you`re ready. Thank you.

I can't see if my application has been approved either, my application is just stuck on the 'review application' page and I can't seem to submit it?

Thanks
