Hi Dee Ann Jo,

Hi Zoya,

 

I took a closer look at your profile and can confirm it's been accepted. You can now start submitting proposals to jobs and potential clients. Let us know if you're having difficulties doing so, and we'll look further into that.

Hi,

 

I am unable to access any jobs, and I can't verify my ID. It's impossible for me to access support since all pages are redirecting me to an error. The page asking me to access support is just going straight to an error page, and I even can't file a ticket since there is no actual page allowing me to do so.

 

This is what I get from one of the pages related to accessing support.

 

Looking for something?

We can't find this page. But we can help you find
new opportunities: hire talent, find work or get help.

Error 404 (N)

Trace ID: 7efcda30fe9f0a50-AMS

 

Please assist.

I checked your profile and can see it is being reviewed. In the meantime, you can still work on improving your profile and resubmit it with any changes.

If you experience any issues with your profile submission or review, please contact support by clicking the "Get Support" button that shows at the bottom right corner in the Upwork Help.

Hi Himanshu,

 

I took a closer look at your account and can confirm that it's been approved and has no restrictions. As Mykola mentioned, If the team finds the need for you to verify your identity, you will receive an email detailing the instructions for completing your verification. For now, feel free to submit proposals to potential clients.

Dear Upwork Support,

I am writing to you today to request assistance with my identity verification issue. I have been trying to verify my identity for the past few days, but I have been unsuccessful. I have uploaded a clear and well-lit photo of my government-issued ID, but I keep receiving an error message saying that my ID is not valid.

I have double-checked that my ID is valid and that I have uploaded it correctly, but I am still having trouble. I am not sure what else I can do to verify my identity.

I am a freelance web developer and I need to be able to verify my identity in order to start working on projects. I am also a registered user on Upwork and I have a good reputation. I have never had any problems with my account before.

I would appreciate it if you could help me resolve this issue as soon as possible. I am available to provide any additional information that you may need.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
Sheraz karim

I hope this helps!

I've successfully set up my new Upwork account and filled in all the necessary details. I'm wondering if I can start using my account to secure projects. Since I'm a newcomer to this platform, I'm currently facing some challenges.

Hi Muhammad,

If you are able to submit proposals, your profile has been approved.  You may not be verified yet, but that will come in the near future.  Make sure you visit the academy and complete the learning paths.

Good luck!
