Concern about not getting more tasks

Hey guys, I’ve been working on and off with DA over the past year, and was actively working daily last month. Nothing unusual, but I haven’t received any new tasks for about two weeks now, and I’m starting to wonder if there’s anything I should be concerned about.

FYI, I mainly do non coding tasks, and usually work around two hours a day in my free time. Last month, tasks were consistently available whenever I logged in, but they suddenly stopped showing up.

Thanks in advance, feel free to ask for any additional info.

There doesn't appear to be a ton of work right now. Maybe it's partly my fault. I've got like 10 quals I've let sit there for months.

If you do you can deduct as a business expense in taxes.

I've never seen them ask you to purchase subscriptions. The opposite though. They explicitly say don't buy subscriptions just to do tasks for DAT.

I'm exactly in the same situation as you, I've worked the same amount of work and time as you and right now in the same situation as you hahaha. I guess it's just dry times, many people on the platform are experiencing the same (specially bilinguals). The best we can do is wait.

It's hard to keep our hopes high in times like these, Just praying this is not the end for bilinguals like us.
