the emancipation proclamation took effect in 1865 when the south surrendered but in 1863, blacks were allowed to fight in the war for very little pay
The Emancipation Proclamation had the effect to prevent the foreign powers from further backing the Confederacy in its military and diplomatic war efforts to avoid of being accused to be pro-slavery by their own people and by the international public opinion. Furthermore the Proclamation had also the effect to legally authorize the enlistment of blacks, thus allowing black regiments to be formed and enter into the United States Army Force.

Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862 but it took effect on January 1, 1863.
The Emancipation Proclamation was very carefully worded to not free anyone anywhere at the time of its writing!The Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves inside states in rebellion (i.e. Confederacy) and not controlled by Union troops. These states obviously ignored the Emancipation Proclamation and did not free any slaves. At the time the Emancipation Proclamation was written Union troops did not control any of those states.The Emancipation Proclamation explicitly permitted states that had stayed in the Union to keep their slaves. This was because if the Emancipation Proclamation freed such slaves then these states would probably leave the Union and join the Confederacy. Lincoln could not afford to have that happen!In fact the Emancipation Proclamation was a Propaganda document to encourage European support for the Union, and it was not expected to have any effect on either slave masters or enslaved people.Actually freeing the enslaved people would have to wait until after the war.
