Eureka!

Sim A - Darius born in game was recruited into the Social Media career starting at level 3 via a job offer.
Level 4 - Internet Personality Branch "Status update from venue" seems to replace the check-in option.
Work tasks are focused on jokes and mischief.
--
Sim B - Steven created in CAS and started at level 1 in the Social Media career.
The check-in option finally showed on his phone but the work task did not.
--
Added another Sim to second (Steve) save in another household.
Sim C - Nancy created in CAS and has been on the gallery {not played and has zero skills} for a while.
Started at level 1 in the Social Media career.
When she reached the second level of the career the check-in option became available.
The work task was able to be completed at level 2 of the career.

Are there any social media options on the phone at all? At different levels of social media, the basic "check in" at venue is renamed to something indicating its more powerful effect and increased followers gained - stuff like "Announce Appearance" - it's the same as check in but a super-check in.

I have options that came with Get Famous to post on Simstagram and update social media on phone. I did experiment with those options. But none satisfied the task to check in at any venue.

I also started a brand new save with a newly created Sim. I moved this fresh Sim into a San Myshuno apartment in the art district. He started at level 1 of the social media career. There were two work from home tasks to check in at different venues. Check in or anything like it did not work and the actual option is not in any category on the phone.

Did you actually create a social media profile on a computer? I can imagine options not being present if you don’t have one.

It’s usually the first thing it tells you to do when joining the career, but if you skipped levels may you forgot about it?
