Hi, my university also needs a W9 or W8BEN for some work that I had done on Upwork.

Hi Maya, 

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. While all freelancers who are U.S persons should file a Form W-9 with Upwork, and this is signed electronically by submitting the form. If you need help with how you can report your taxes, you may want to check with your local tax advisor. Thank you.
