### Step 3: Ask the new member to check the invitation email

The new member should receive an email about the new project invitation. If the email is not a current user in SMAQ, the user will be asked to go through the sign-up process.

You can check the status in the "**Project Invitation**" section. The invitation will be expired in **7 days**. However, as project editor / owner, you can resend or revoke the invitation any time.&#x20;

In case the new user cannot find the invitation email, please check the spam mail.
