Hi Margaret,

The Form W-8BEN is a form used to confirm you’re not a U.S. taxpayer and that Upwork is not required to withhold taxes from your earnings. To provide Upwork with your Form W-8BEN information, please follow the steps below:

• Go Settings › Tax Information
• Provide us with your legal name and address
