local wire transfer pkr where upwork charge .99 but your conversion rate will be less then interbank rate e.g 133PKR instead of 141PKR . I recommend to use USD wire transfer where upwork charge $30 per transaction send USD to you account if your account is PKR then your bank will automatically convert to current interback rate , if your account USD then USD will be at your account . and this method is good for proof of your income called inward transaction no tax on this transaction .

Thanks. If I get 141 rate for $ then I will definitely use this method. I have also applied for the remittance certificate for the other transactions see if I get it. Because someone mentioned that I can get it for the local bank wire transfers transaction as well.

for local PKR you can see at your bank statement transferd from a local bank account at Pakistan so e you can't prove its a remetence . Usualy trasferd from Askari bank. I dont know whos behind but Upwork says our partners where upwork pay USD at united states and they pay pkr at Pakistan .

Yes from now on I will be withdrawing with $30 method. But for the old transactions I have applied for the certificate as someone told me I could get it from the bank by informing them its remittance and they will verify. My bank asked me to provide the list of the transaction with the amounts now I am waiting for them to inform me about it they said it could take 1 week to 1 months lets see if I get it or not. If I have known before I would have withdrawn with USD method.
