A Textbroker Update
Felicia | Feb 05, 2009 | Comments 0
It appears that Textbroker no longer hires writers that are not located in the US. Below is an email I received from them today. If you have already signed up for Textbroker, you probably received the same email. However, folks who were considering writing for them should be aware of the following:
Hello Felicia,
Based on U.S. tax laws, we decided to only to hire U.S.-citizens as writers.
While processing the 1099-MISC forms for 2008, we discovered that several authors have registered with fake information.Starting 02/06/2009, all authors exceeding $200 annual payment are required to send us an IRS W-9 (Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification) form, before any further payment is processed. You will automatically receive the W-9 form for download once you passed this income figure.
As soon as we receive the completed form back via fax or mail, your account will be verified, and you will be able to proceed as normal.
Furthermore, you will no longer be required to enter your SSN / TIN when using our site.
Important Information:
This rule takes effect on 02/06/2009. The current payoff (02/06/2009) will not be affected if you file your request before this date.
The W-9 form is a standard form and is used by nearly all employers hiring freelancers. Filling out the form will only take 5 minutes, and simply ensure that your provided information is truthful.
Kind regards,
Your Team Textbroker
