# Profile completeness

The [profile dashboard](https://my.lexpoint.io/app/profile) shows required sections as a **4/4**
list. When all four are filled it shows a **Profile Complete** chip; until then the count and the
incomplete rows stay visible.

Only four sections are counted.

| Section | Counts as complete when | Where it links |
|---|---|---|
| **Personal Info** | First name, last name, date of birth, and citizenship country are all filled in. | [Personal information](/individuals/profile/personal-info/) |
| **Work Experience** | At least one job is recorded. | [Work experience](/individuals/profile/work-experience/) |
| **Education** | At least one credential is recorded. | [Education](/individuals/profile/education/) |
| **Language Tests** | At least one test result is recorded. | [Language tests](/individuals/profile/language-tests/) |

Job offers, family, certificates, letters of acceptance, and annual income are not part of this
count. They matter for the programmes that read them, but they do not move the bar.

## The three states

Each row shows one of three markers.

| Marker | Means | What the row says |
|---|---|---|
| Green tick | Complete | A summary of the data — for example *2 jobs added*, *1 credential added*. |
| Amber warning | Review needed | *Review needed* — the section has data but has not been confirmed. Only ever appears on migrated accounts. |
| Red outline | Incomplete | What is missing — *Missing required fields*, *No work history added*, *No education added*, *No test results added*. |

The bar above the rows is green when all four are complete, amber when some are, and red when none
are. Below it, the panel reads either *All essential sections complete* or *N sections still
needed*.

## Scores and the completion gate

Your report's scores stay locked until the profile gate clears. The gate uses a slightly narrower
definition than the sidebar row: it treats personal information as present when your **date of
birth**, **citizenship country**, and **marital status** are all recorded, then requires at least one
record in each of work history, education, and language tests.

Until then Lexpoint reports the gate as *profile incomplete*, names the sections still missing —
Personal Info, Work History, Education, Language — and links to each of them. That is also what Lexi
sees, which is why it will direct you to a specific section rather than quoting a number.

## The legacy review flag

Some accounts were migrated from Lexpoint's earlier system. On those accounts, and only on those,
Lexpoint tracks whether you have confirmed each of the four sections since the move.

| Condition | Effect |
|---|---|
| A tracked section has not been confirmed | Its sidebar row shows the amber **Review needed** marker instead of a green tick. |
| Any tracked section is unconfirmed | Your report's scores are masked, and the gate reports the reason as a pending legacy review rather than an incomplete profile. |
| All four are confirmed | The flag disappears permanently and normal completeness rules apply. |

The four tracked sections are the same four above: Personal Info, Work History, Education, and
Language.

### Clearing it

Opening a section and saving it marks that section reviewed. On personal information and education
you may also see a **Review Required** panel — *You haven't confirmed this section yet* — with a
**Confirm & Complete** button that does the same thing without re-editing anything.

If you have never seen an amber marker, this does not apply to your account.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which sections count toward profile completion?

Four — Personal Info, Work Experience, Education, and Language Tests. Job offers, family, certificates, letters of acceptance, and annual income are not part of the completion count.

### What does an amber "Review needed" marker mean?

It appears only on accounts migrated from Lexpoint's earlier system. The section has data but you have not confirmed it since the move. Opening the section and saving it clears the flag.

### Why are my scores hidden even though every section has data?

On a migrated account, scores stay masked until all four tracked sections have been confirmed, regardless of how complete the data looks.
