I don’t encourage anyone to use false information anywhere. It is better to get one ASAP, hopefully it isn’t expensive.

Short term solution, long term wahala. Everytime.

When I started, I saw those tricks of using another country as location. I no get strength to dey lie up and down. Don’t be surprised this is just a move to smoke out sneaky accounts. Too many supposed American freelancers and IRS ain’t getting all the money. cheesy cheesy

It does. Upwork would temporarily or permanently suspend your account if they suspect foul play.

You are welcome. Do keep me posted.

Lol. This is not a job, please. Why take such gig? It is better to brush up and find something deserving. You can get banned because his intentions are most likely not noble.
Thanks. Im new in the game

Giving him such info could make you abetting in crime if he gets caught. I bet he needed such for fraudulent SMS spamming or something

Good evening house,

My Upwork account has been put on private because I was unable to land a job. Can I open another one? Or how do I go about it? Please help.

If you open another account with same credentials, they would both be banned permanently. You know why your account was put on private- fix it. It is not a death sentence. Clients would see and read your proposals, but they can’t find you with the search option.


My advice: Keep applying.

Regards

really? I think it just has a steeper learning curve compared to other PHP frameworks. I also don't know which version you have tried but from sf4, most things are easier to do.

Symfony 3, then later 4(hello world), I found it very steep, I just moved to Java, but I've used it for a Project with the Doctrine DBAL. Symfony is a flexible framework but the curve was too much for me. But I don't do PHP anymore like that

Hello all, please how do I go about TIN verification on Upwork? I don't have a Tax Identification Number and I read it's mandatory for non-US residents to provide their tax details. Has anyone here without a TIN been able to solve this yet?
I'd appreciate any help I can get as regards this. Thank you!

Everything can be done online and in less than 24 hours. I will make a tutorial on it soon.

Ah, that would be awesome! But I thought online registration isn't meant for individuals. Am I wrong about that?
I already sent the FIRS branch in my state an email on the whole process, hopefully they get back to me soon so I can get this over with.

It is both for individual and businesses, as long as you have an NIN, I did mine in the evening and got it the next morning, totally online and free. Would have made a tutorial on it today but today was a busy day for me and can't start doing anything, but hopefully tomorrow.

Hi bosses. I am a UI/UX and I have been sending proposals on upwork but no invite. Please can anybody help me review my proposal?
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by Cso15: 12:10pm On Dec 05, 2022
Hello bosses,
I'll appreciate if you can take few minutes of your time to review my Upwork profile as well.
Is there anyway it can be improved?
Thanks in advance

It's not bad, how many proposals do you send? also, you should consider diversifying your skill, don't be dependent on a category alone.

Hi Cutezt! I'm thinking you missed sending the tutorial or probably you had a long day today? Feel free to send it in at your convenience. I appreciate it!

Please permit me to clear wrong impression created here by some ignorant persons claiming to too know but in the actual sense know nothing as regard the upwork tax update.

The W-8BEN or W8BEN-E does not require you to go get TIN. So who ever that bring this false alarm must be a product of qoata system and should be boot out of this thread.

The W-8BEN or W8BEN-E is the form every non USA resident fill if he or she is working on any of the US digital marketplace platforms or company in order to prove that he or she is a non resident and tax should not be deducted from his or earnings.

It's been filled in Amazon, ezoic and every other US based digital companies

All you require to do fill up the form and state the country you're currently residing and your current address. You don't need TIN for heaven sake

Please kindly, disregard the ignorant fellows spreading fake news

I came here to asked what the above poster is talking about.
I clicked on the link sent via mail for the update stuff but I not see where to put TIN, I had to just cancel everything to come and check here.
Please whoever has successfully updated the necessary stuff based on the mail should share how it went.

Don't mind the ignorant fellows talking rubbish. Just fill the form and submit. No TIN is required
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by pocohantas(f): 6:38am On Dec 06, 2022
I wonder how the screen looks like at your end that you didn’t see where to add TIN.

This is what it looks like here. Maybe they do not need the TIN, but there is a provision for TIN. You can choose not to fill yours, no need shouting and cursing like the world is coming to an end.

THIS is Upwork’s detailed position on the issue. Please read and comprehend.

THIS is the topic being discussed in Upwork’s community.

2) You can message Upwork’s support and ask if you MUST fill in your TIN as a non-US resident.

3) If you have your TIN, please put it.

4) If you don’t have your TIN and you want to get and put, please DO.

5) If you have/don’t have your TIN and do not want to put, please DON’T.

May what we believe in, work for all of us…

It didn't allow me withdraw money without specifiy a TIN, despite filling W-8BEN check if your payment methods are active
Modified: I just check with someone's account I managed, her is normal without TIN seems they fixed it
