My Tax residence has changed since January 2022. Therefore, I cannot sign the Affidavit of Unchanged Status. I cannot get paid through Upwork without it. What am I supposed to do?

[ArjayM]

Hi Nadiia,

Thank you for reaching out to us here in the Community. You may read the Tax Certification, Statement of Source, and Confirmation of Unchanged Status, which includes reviewing the information you have provided, shown in the text box, and the Statement of Source Information. For the Statement of Source, you confirm that your work is outside of the U.S.

Then, you need to sign the affidavit confirming your status has not changed; with your legal name, the date will also auto-default to today’s date. You may also check this help article for more details. Let us know if you need further assistance.

[926a7168]

Thank you for your response, but this doesn't solve my problem. I know what submitting tax details on Upwork entails. My problem is that the Affidavit says that my details must not have changed from January 2022, which they have. Therefore I am not able to sign it. I would like to know what can be done about it.

Hello im facing the same problem. My paypal is inactive. What should I do?

[LuiggiR]

Hello Azhil,

Your withdrawal methods are inactive because you haven't completed your Tax Information yet. More specifically, I see that you're missing your Tax Identification Number. 

This is the number that your country uses for collecting your tax information and may have a different name, such as PAN in India, for example. Some countries may use a National ID number. You may be able to find information about your country's TIN here. If you have questions about your number, you will need to consult a tax advisor in your country or contact your local tax authority.

Dear Concern,

I am facing problem in activating my payment method. I have completed all my bank info and even tax info. Lastly they are asking to give TIN number which I don't have. Since all of my bank info is clear, "Get Paid Now" option should have been activated by now. Please help me out beacuse of this I could not start my work yet.

[LuiggiR]

Hi Rufaida,

This is happening because, as you mentioned, you haven't provided your TIN. This is the number that your country uses for collecting your tax information and may have a different name, such as PAN in India, for example. Some countries may use a National ID number. You may be able to find information about your country’s TIN here. If you have questions about your number, you will need to consult a tax advisor in your country or contact your local tax authority.

My name in upwork is "GÖZLEMECİ" I have a surname, but I wrote GOZLEMECİ in the payment method, so my payment method may not be active, could you please review it? pls help ^^

[1812b2e2]

I don't have a tax number, I will not exceed a certain income since I already use it individually. Is there still a need for a tax number?

Hi Aayushi,

I took a closer look at your account and confirmed that you've successfully added your local bank as a payment method to your account. You can expect your new payment method to be active in three days. Let us know if you need further assistance.

Dear Upwork Team,

I trust this message finds you well. I am writing to request your prompt assistance in approving my payment method as I am in urgent need of accessing my funds. The timely approval of my payment method is crucial for my financial requirements.

I understand the importance of the verification process and appreciate the measures in place to ensure the security of transactions. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I find myself in a situation where I urgently need to access my funds for essential expenses.

I have provided all the necessary details for the payment method, and I am available to provide any additional information or documentation if required. Your swift attention to this matter would be highly appreciated, and I am confident that expediting this process will greatly alleviate my current financial constraints.

I understand that you receive numerous requests, and I genuinely appreciate your consideration of my situation. I am committed to complying with all necessary procedures promptly.

Thank you for your understanding and timely assistance in resolving this matter. I look forward to your positive response and the swift approval of my payment method.

Best regards,

Mohsin Malik

Hi Mohsin,

I understand you're eager to access your funds as soon as possible. Your payment method is undergoing security verification and will become active by March 10, 2024. Once the verification is complete, you can withdraw your funds. 

[ahmedmoahmed97]

Hello,

I hame an inactive payment method which is direct to US bank account. I have waited for more than 3 days and before that I completed all tax information and it's completed.

I had created a ticket for this problem 10 days ago and the support responded that there will be someone will contact me about this issue and literally nothing happened since then.

I wish someone contact me about this issue.

[JoanneP]

Hi Ahmed,

I can see that you already have an open ticket regarding this issue. One of our agents will update your ticket and assist you further. 

[ahmedmoahmed97]

Hello Joanna,

I need this issue to be fixed as soon as possible I have already waited enough time I think, it has been almost TWO WEEKS with no response whatsoever and your response on my issue was two days ago, so if no one answered what's the point of support? they didn't even keep up or do anything.

I wish someone contact me about this issue.

Regards,

Ahmed

Hello, a while ago I created my account in Upwork and changed the name to confirm it, but when I added PayPal to withdraw from my account, it told me that the name is different, even though it is not different, I think that the financial profile information has not been updated. It appears to me at PayPal in Upwork INACTIVE and then Two days later, this notification appears (Due to technical issues page data is not fully loaded, try again later.) I hope you help me fix this problem ASAP to withdraw my money Thank you!!!

[LuiggiR]

Hi Issam,

I checked and can see that your PayPal is inactive because you haven't provided all your Tax Information yet, specifically, your Tax Identification Number. This is the number that your country uses for collecting your tax information and may have a different name, such as PAN in India, for example. If you are a freelancer in Egypt, you can use your National ID as your TIN.

If you have additional questions about your number, you will need to consult a tax advisor in your country or contact your local tax authority.
