You cannot join this team until the client adds a complete address. Please wait until the client do

Hi

 

I get the error "You cannot join this team until the client adds a complete address. Please wait until the client does so." when trying to hire a freelancer. I already have my address on file and on file with my payment credit card.

 

What's happening?

 

How do I fix it?

 

Thanks,

 

Rob

For those looking for the solution off of Google:

Under Settings > My Info > Company Contacts Address is the part that the client needs to fill out.

In my case, the client had said they filled out their address, but they had filled out the tax form address.

Hi Noor,

 

I have checked and it looks like the client will need to update their company information before you accept the offer. Please request the client to update their company details and address on the company settings page.

Display error "you cannot Join this team until the client adds its complete address" why this is Happening

Hi Anees,

 

Please confirm with your client if they have provided their address in both Settings > My info and Settings > Tax information. If they have and the issue persists please have them contact support directly so we can help them. Please keep in mind we're not able to discuss any details of their account with you because of privacy reasons.

Is it appropriate for a freelancer to guide his client about what to do on behalf of UPWORK if this is a requirement why for hiring why UPWORK didn't ask Mr. CLIENT to do it in the 1st place before sending the offer?

I appreciate this feedback, Anees. I'll pass it on to the team for review, thank you for sharing.

Hello,

When I try to accept an offer, I see this message:

 

You cannot join this team until the client adds a complete address. Please wait until the client does so.

 

The client claims that he has completely filled out his profile. Can I get help with this situation?

Hi Aliaksei,

 

Could you share the client's name with me via PM (click on my name) so that I can check the details further? Thank you.

I have the exact same problem. The client has completed their profile.

Hi Ela,

 

If you're getting this error message it means your client needs to add their address in Settings > My info > Company contacts.

Hi I am having the same issue. Can someone follow up please?


Hi Yunreszkhy,

 

Thank you for your message. I am sorry to hear that you are unable to accept an offer. I checked and I would suggest reaching out to your client directly to request them to complete all company related information on their account including the address. Once done, you should be able to accept the offer.

 

Thank you

Hi All,

When I tried to accept the offer from one of my clients, there is following message:
"You cannot join this team until the client adds a complete address. Please wait until the client does so."

My client is saying "I couldn't find the spot for the address".

 

How can I help him?

Hello!

 

I've been trying to accept a job offer (using different browsers), but I keep getting this error. My client confirmed that they have the complete address. Could someone from the support team help?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

hey Tuba, I'm not from the support team, but I had the kinda same issue last week

finally, my client started a new job and I sent a request for that and she accepted me.

 

i know it can feel bad cuz i was afraid to lose the job since she got 17 other requests as well

 

 

Hello Michael, thank you for reaching out 🙂 I asked my client to resend the offer but it didn’t work again sadly. I don’t know how to send a request. Just the proposal.

Hi Tuba,

 

Your client should confirm they have added their address in their My Info and Tax Information pages. If they have and you're still experiencing issues, I would suggest they reach out to support directly so they can help with their account. A quick way to contact support is by clicking the question mark icon that shows at the bottom right corner of this page.

Issue: "You cannot join this team until the client adds a complete address. Please wait until the client does so."  My client added address though. Please help.

Hi Sarah.

 

Thank you for your message. It looks like your client has not added their complete address to their Upwork account. They will need to add a full address to their Upwork account before you accept the offer. Please share this direct link with your client to update the address on their Upwork account. You can try accepting the offer once the client has updated their address. Feel free to message us if you need further assistance. 

 

Thank you

Pradeep
