Hello to Everyone.
I haven't gotten a job yet, but I am concerned about getting paid.
I have integrated my Payoneer account here and determined the payment intervals.(You can see in the attachment)
But my schedule and payment method appear to be inactive. Is this a problem or is it active during payment periods?
My second problem is as follows;
When I enter the Get Paid section, I get this warning at the top:
"In order to withdraw earnings, please complete a W8BEN Foreign Status Certification. If you are a U.S. taxpayer living outside of the United States, please complete a W9 Form."
I don't have any tax numbers. I want to work like this for a while. How can I solve this?

Hi Mustafa,
The system will activate your eligibility to access funds immediately after you complete the appropriate form. All freelancers who are U.S persons should file a Form W-9 with Upwork (all others should file a Form W-8BEN). If you are not a U.S. taxpayer you only need to provide your legal name and address for the Form W-8BEN.
Thanks!
