How can I know that my profile is approved?

How can I confirm whether my account has been approved or not? I can submit a proposal, but I haven't received my free first-time registration connects.

Hey, 
I have created my freelancer account in upwork in 12th September, 2024 but it's not being approved. Can you please check and tell me what's the reason of being not approved for the last one month. 
Thank you

Hi i've just created a profile for the first time and filled in all sections. It has not been approved and i'm wondering why. It says that I should have already received an email with instructions on what I can do. However, I have not received any email and therefore I don't know what I need to be editing in order to resubmit the profile

Hi there,

I was wondering why my profile was declined? I think I gave all the relevant info and the profile pic seems ok too. Can I get any feedback about what is wrong with my submission so I can update it? I did not receive the email with additional information on what to edit. 

Thanks in advance,

Ann

Dear Upwork Support,

My name is Umama Majid, and I recently applied to create a freelancer account on Upwork. I'm interested in starting my freelance journey on your platform and connecting with potential clients.

I'm writing to inquire about the status of my account approval. I haven't received any updates yet, and I'd appreciate it if you could let me know the estimated timeframe for approval or if there's any additional information I need to provide.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Sincerely,

Umama Majid

Hi ArjayM,

However, I didn't receive any email from Upwork and also didn't receive any connections to apply for new jobs.

The requirements have changed to get Connects when you sign up. You will need to buy 100 Connects for 15 USD or subscribe to Freelancer Plus plan for 20 USD/months. After that, you will receive 50 free Connects.

If any client sends me an invitation for the job and hired me on invitation in this case, can I verify my account?

There is a lot of competition and invitation are rare for new freelancer.

Hello Zaheer,

 

You've already successfully created your account; welcome to Upwork! I'd highly encourage you to get familiar with the basics here at Upwork. Below are a few Upwork Academy courses to help you get started:

 

Additionally, please know that Upwork currently requires new freelancers to do one of two things before being able to submit a proposal for a job: subscribe to our Freelancer Plus membership plan for $20 USD a month, or purchase 100 Connects for $15 USD. After you fulfill this requirement you will also receive 50 free Connects to further help you get started on Upwork.
