Business / Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by RoyalPriesthuud(m): 10:20pm On May 26, 2023 |
Need advice on moving to the next level at Upwork: My first and only gig was a long term contract from February. It's not a continuous work as they only push work to me when they have the need with a 15hour weekly limit. The number of hours in total is about 70+ hours billed since February. Here's the issue, I haven't had work from them at all in about 4 weeks, and I'm finding it hard winning any new work or even getting an interview. I feel like this could be because my account is still like new with no JSS and no reviews. My question: Should I message my client to do me a favour by ending the contract and leave me a review so I could make some progress. I'd promise them that they could start another one with me when they have new work and at my current rate with them as a bonus from my end. Is this logical or is there a better way to approach it? Thanks for sharing your wisdom in advance cc: @pocohontas @qtguru |

Chiefs, is there a dollar card that one can top up directly with USD? I'm looking for a card service to pay for things tutorials and co. Geegpay card service is currently unavailable and converting first to Naira just to top up cards like Chipper cash's is loses money to fees and exchange rates imbalances. cc: @Ayomipoe @pocohontas Thanks 2 Likes |

Ayomipoe:Appreciate you. Geegpay has fixed my issue so I'm using them now. Also, I saw a news about Paxful shutting down. You might want to remove your funds there if you have any https://decrypt.co/125411/paxful-bitcoin-marketplace-closure-cofounder-lawsuit |

CreamyCoffee:I went to the tax office in my state secretariat. I got it on the spot after a brief discussion with the staff. Apparently it's just sitting there in their system/portal waiting for a staff member to "Approve" it. One tip I can share is to not tell them you're already working. They wanted me to pay some amount for back taxes. I had to negotiate down from 50k to 0. |

Ayomipoe: I don't understand. WIll I lose 6-8% value if I trade via Paxful? Also, is the sequence like this: use USD to buy USDT; sell USDT for Naira? |

pocohantas:Geegpay used my middle name as first name to create my bank details. Upwork deactivated withdrawals when I added it and review was taking too long I'm in need of the payout badly so I'm resorting to this option for now. |

Folks, what's the cheapest option to get money off Payoneer? I'm considering adding my Geegpay bank details and converting to Naira via geegpay but I wonder if there are other options to maximize value. |

chieni: That would be dangerous waters. Personal registration nowadays is tied to individual NINs. Any business they do with the number(s) you registered for them would forever be under your identity. I'm sure SIM registrations for businesses would require typical business documents like CAC reg no and co. 1 Like |

What other platforms can I use to withdraw my Upwork earnings aside Geegpay and Wise please? Geegpay has not verified my account for the past 2 weeks and I currently do not the ID required to verify Wise. Someone also told me to stay away from Payoneer(I don't know why). I have a few hundred bucks from my first gig that I need to withdraw fast. cc: @Ayomipoe @qtguru @pocohantas 1 Like |

Ayomipoe: I've been checking the site everyday for the past week, it returns not found. I'm talking about WBEN form on upwork. I like your idea of testing with a small amount first. Thank you! |
Business / Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by RoyalPriesthuud(m): 10:26am On Mar 08, 2023 |
pocohantas: It's showing as "available for withdrawal" in my dashboard, but I read they could legally withold up to 30% of my earnings in taxes if I do not fill the WBEN form. I filled it using 0000, but I'm doubly scared of losing 30% and getting penalized for invalid TIN. Also, do you have an idea when TIN becomes available? I registered online since last month but it's been radio silence from the tax authorities since. I don't know what to do. |

Bosses, what happens if I make a withdrawal without a valid TIN added yet? My TIN is not ready yet so I filled in 0000 on Upwork as a placeholder. I'm wondering whether that would cause me any problems? |

Hi bosses, is incorrect date of birth on ID card going to be a problem for Upwork verification? I want to use my voters card to verify my Upwork account but the Date of Birth on it is incorrect (the day and month is wrong). I'm worried about DOB clashing with other places I've entered it like the tax section and on my TIN cc: @pocohantas @Ayomipoe |

It should reload and wipe off. That is what happened to mine. You can also try loading RRR number from last semester and then repeat. Let me know if it works. |
