Hello Upwork. I just made my profile today. I just had a very important question. I am originally from Iran. and I know people who live in Iran cant work with upwork. but I am Iranian living in turkey and I have a residence permit for turkey ( I can upload the photo of my Turkish id card). so my question is can I work here on upwork? I don't want to be in any troubles.my nationality is Iranian but I live in turkey with my husband. thanks for helping me!

Hi Zahra,
I would suggest to consult yourself with a local specialist about this. Regardless of where you are living, you are responsible to comply with any work authorization requirements you may have. Thank you.

they have told me there is no problem with working with a company based on us when you are living in another country. people in Iran cant work with the USA because of some political issues.
and I know upwork won't accept freelancers from Iran.
but my situation is different. only my nationality is from Iran.
I want to know does upwork take people based on the country they are legally living or based on their nationality.
