Applying for a tourist visa

[Clarissa B]

Hi! I hope someone can help me. My husband and I are planning to have a month long vacation in the US. My question is, in the visa application, who do I put as my employer?

Upwork is just a marketplace, and your clients are merely people buying a service. There's no employment relationship anywhere in that.

If Upwork is your sole source of income, that makes you Self-Employed (or sometimes an Independent Contractor).

you are your own employer...so you are either a business owner or an independent contractor.
