How are y'all withdrawing your money?
Directly to domiciliary account. Although it comes with a charge of 30usd, so I set my withdrawal to quarterly

So you can add your domiciliary account directly on Upwork and skip Payoneer?

that's a 30$ charge after a 20% fee sounds excessive to me, but only option

Yeah, but if the withdrawal amount is more than 1500usd, it's a cheaper option

Was paying more than that using Payoneer. After upwork's 20%, you still had to pay 2% to withdraw to bank and depending on your earnings, it could be more than that $30

It is. Simply update with your TIN.

Sadly, you don’t use another person’s details for any reason on Upwork - you risk a ban. This is the problem with being in Nigeria and claiming another country. The lies and covering up never ends. cry

Edit: Found this on an Upwork group. Is it now by force? grin

Also using my business name corporate TIN because I don't have a personal one, the business name isn't in my legal name but it's registered in my legal name, I don't know if this won't cause wahala. Like why do they even need our TINs? Are they going to start taxing us?

Not sure, but I think to confirm that we are not US Citizens, what I don't know is; if Upworks can share our payment history with FIRS.

Sadly you can’t find this there. No one has that time now. They are more interested in posting their badges and earnings.

I used to use Access for my Payoneer but my last transaction was Nov 10. So I have no personal experience. Let me go check the comments on that post sha.

Edit: I have gone through the thread. Seems they have lifted the ban for some. I knew it was just a matter of time. cheesy

I learned from nowhere. I learned on my own. I have also created a thread on this same NL to share my little knowledge. I have shared my Upwork note on NL.

-I have an offline group of 200+ members.

-I have mentored a few Nlders.

However, I won’t share any group here (for specific reasons). Better post your earnings as usual and go. No carry your craze come my side. No be you teach me Upwork/remote work.

It's really not complex, just have a good portfolio and apply to those jobs, there's nothing a group can do for you except encourage you to have a good portfolio and apply for jobs.

Her category and yours differ, how her clients will check for portfolios is different from yours,

Do you have a Figma link? Behance
Do you have a portfolio of designs
Are they up to quality?
