How do I classify my income as business revenue?

[15ad4035]

Hi! I'm talking to my accountant and he told me that I need to send invoices in the name of my company in order for my income to be considered "business income".

It's very important to me that I get paid through my LLC because of specific tax advantages that are unique to my case.

Does anyone know if I have to do anything special to earn "business income" instead of personal income? Do I have to do anything in UpWork settings or check any specific boxes?

Thanks so much 🙂

Hi Thelonious,

The name shown on Upwork invoices is your verified name, and this can't be changed to a company name. Please know that Upwork cannot provide any legal or tax advice. In these cases, we recommend you consult local experts.

Hey Thelonious, did you end up making any changes for this? I'm in the same boat
