Hi Ginnette,

 

You'll have access to your Upwork earnings as long as you complete W-8BEN form, 

which purpose is to confirm you're not a US taxpayer. You can use your own legal name as it appears in your passport or other official documents. You may need to consult a local tax adviser about proper ways to report your Upwork income to your country's tax authorities. 

 

Thank you!

I am currently an international student studying in Georgia. I do not have a tax number so is it mandatory? How do I apply for one if I do need one?

I live in Venezuela too, you just have to go to tax information and declare that you're outside of us and it works fine I receive the money via PayPal and I haven't received any issue.
