The problem is that, Even after publishing a project, the assigned user cannot see their taks in “My tasks” page on PWA. Here are the most common issues that I have seen make this happen. ( the tasks can be seen in “projct Center”)
1) Your Resources are still “proposed”, and not “committed”. You can fix this by changing the “Booking Type” in your Project Schedule for these resources.
2) The “Publish” column for the task/assignment is set to “No”. This would make the task to disappear from “My Tasks” page, but they will be seen in “project center”. To fix this, open the Project Schedule, Insert the “publish” column and set it to yes.
3) The “Show only current tasks” option is checked which shows only the current tasks and hides all other tasks. Uncheck this box under “Settings>View Options” in “My Tasks” page.
4) This is very silly, but courtesy to the poor design of Microsoft on this point, User fails to see that there are multiple pages for the “My Tasks” page. if you scroll all the way to right and all the way to the bottom, you will see the other pages.
Update: Another possibility I forgot. Check to make sure the Default Assignment OWner for those tasks is actually the resource you assigned.
If the above do not fix your issue, make sure your projet publish is not stuck in queue due to an error and/or check projec data for any posible corruption.

In my I found that, when the resources been created in resource center the option i.e. “Associate user with user account” checkbox was not selected hence the user was not able to see his/her assignments in My Tasks Page. Users with this option checked were the ones who can acutally see their tasks.

Which version of the tool are you using? Starting 2010, you need to have Single Entry mode enabled to see the task on the timesheet. Also, timesheet by default only shows tasks that have remaining work for that specific week.
