Hi all,

If you are a new freelancer and don't earn money on Upwork within 90 days of your first proposal, or you choose not to submit a proposal within your first 90 days, your profile will change to private.

When your profile is set to private it is not shown in freelancer search results but rest assured, clients are still able to see your profile when you submit proposals!

You can request that your profile visibility is reset by clicking this link found in this help article.

Hi Arjay, I have been on Upwork for over a year now but I haven't gotten any Verification ID Badge and my profile is Locked to private.

PS: I have been submitting proposals consistently

Hi Nike,

I took the liberty of resetting your profile back to public. I have also checked your account, and it doesn't need further verification yet. Please be reminded that you cannot initiate the identity verification yourself, and cannot be requested. If the team finds the need for you to do it, you will receive an email detailing the instructions for completing your verification. You may want to check this help article for more information.

Hi Shehr,

Thank you for reaching out to us here in the Community. I believe you're referring to Availability Badge. Please remember that the Availability Badge is an option designed to help you signal to clients that you are ready for new work. And yes! You'll need to use Connects to add the blue “Available now” badgeConnects. You may want to check this help article to learn more about how the badge works.

On the other hand, when you upgrade to Freelancer Plus, we'll keep your profile active even if you take a break. You check this help article to learn more about profile visibility.
