Hello my fello mylotters I have a problem regarding e-how. Many of you are recommending this site as one that pays really well for writing and a site where you can easily reach the payout. So I registered with them. However when I wanted to fill my payment details I couldn't get past all the information UScitizens need to provide there. As a Non-US person I don't have a social security number, nor adress in US... Are there anyone who lives outside USA and still gets paid from e-how? I could really use any kind of advice :) THanks in advance

I wrote a few articles and left that place when I came to know that it pays only for US residents. It is mainly done by many due to some tax issues You need to read the terms and conditions section on that site. Non -US residents aren't lucky when it comes to earning money online.

So true. It isn't easy to be able to supprt yourself through your writing when you're not a US citizen. But I think we simply have to be more imaginitive when it comes to finding work like that online :) Thanks for your response :)

I read the terms and conditions at e-How and did not join because it states that only people resident in the United States will qualify for payments from the site. I think it's the same at Associated Content, you can earn money from page views but you can't get upfront payments unless you are American. I have no problem with writing and getting paid at Helium and Triond. I have just joined a new site http://neowide.com/ which offers you a chance to make money by writing articles. The amount paid will range from $1 to $10.

serves me right for not reading carefully their terms, huh? Oh well... I'll simply not use it. I didn't register with assosiated content because of that upfront payment. Thank you for your response ;)
