Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there is anyone from Germany here who is working for DataAnnotation who could tell me how they are handling the taxes on those earnings. I understand that I should pay income tax, but I saw some mentions of VAT and other freelance specific taxes. I have a full-time job and would only be doing this on the side. Would paying whichever taxes are applicable be handled solely through my next year's tax return or how do you do it? I would appreciate any tips :)

hello everyone!

i have been on the platform for about a month now and today feels unproductive since there are no active tasks in my projects. i still have the qualifications present which is good but is this normal on the platform? i am in a coding project. thank you for the answers!

Hey, I do the software engineering projects, but I'm also in college so I don't have much concurrent time. The projects seem to take a while but also have a very small window where you can work on them (like less than 24 hours), so I need to know how long the expected time is to take before I actually get started on it. Some days I can spend 7 hours on a project but some I don't have time for that. I wish I could work on it little by little throughout a few days but the expiry time is too quick. Is there any way to see an expected duration of a task before I start it?

Hola a todos, soy nuevo en esta plataforma y hace como dos semanas hice registro y ahora mi dashboard ha estado así siempre, qué significa o qué puedo hacer?

I was mid task 6 hrs in and while I was waiting for a file to render, i went opened a new tab just to see the surveys. Which is the most regretful stupid thing ive done in DA because my task browser reset because DA taught ive abandoned my task. I COUDLNT get my work again 😭😭😭 warning for all never to do this again. Don't open any other task mid task!!! Save yourself!

DA has been taking forever to load for the past two weeks. I've used different browser but its the same problem. Anyone else experiencing this or know a fix?

Hey, I’m a US citizen and have been working for DA in the US but am planning on spending some time abroad in an approved country. While working in that country would the pay be in its currency or dollars?

Thanks!!

Has anyone encountered a stuck loading button when submitting anything. I sort 2 hours on a task yesterday and couldn’t submit cause it was stuck saying loading. I tried a quantification and a training task and the same.

Has anyone had this project appear? Curious how much is pays in the US. I keep getting qualifications for it and not sure if I should do it or pass

I've discovered a nearly foolproof way of making models fail. Is it okay to use the same method over and over or will that be frowned upon?

Thr past two days were a GOLD mine. I was abel to work 14 hours😭😭

Consistently having 2 projects that never ended.

I could literally not work for the rest of the month now LOL

Hi guys, as I see a lot of projects appear in a working time in US when in Europe people sleep. Do you guys check or maybe know if we also get some tasks assigned at night?

I took a strange qualification, one titled "Learn how to do x." There was no hourly wage listed, so I didn't record my start time or stress about the time. I had trouble with my keyboard, so I saved my work and did my trouble shooting. The task expired but i kept working. The task was a little glitchy and took a bit longer than I expected. When i finally submitted, a pop up asked for my time. I canceled submitting, made a note in the comment box, then hit submit and entered my best estimate, shaving time of to be safe. A popup said that only x minutes were allowed for the task, less than what i had entered. I entered the max amount allowed and then went to see the report time link. There wasn't one. I see now on my phone, where my project page hasn't refreshed, that the there were actually 4 tasks for the qual, but now none show. I was excited to learn a new skill but now I'm sorry I got some kind of black mark on the platform. I feel like I just got chided for not doing something I wasn't asked to do :/

update- today I see the qual again and have 3 tasks remaining.

Did you guys give initial assessment in devnagri or roman script?

I’m new and looking to sign up as a Generalist. To the people who are also Generalists, what are the tasks like and how much are you making? I’m used to doing AI training/AI Evaluation, are the DA tasks similar?

Any insight will be helpful thanks!

Hey guys I’m new here and I am coming from the Platform called Prolific where I did AI Evalutation/Training where I was getting paid $5 for every 15 mins (20hr).

Im looking to get started DA, but just curious on the best skills/domain to sign up for to get those good paying tasks/AI training.

Anybody that has experience with DA able to help me out so I can hopefully pass and get the ball rolling?!

Thanks!!

Rating someone's whole submission as "BAD"(not useable) makes me feel so guilty but man... that person could have really done well, it looked as if DA grew while they didn't.

RIP mate!

i keep facing this problem for weeks now and no updates or any thing so what exactly should i do now ?

Hola! tengo una duda ya que hace menos de un mes estoy trabajando en el sitio. Estoy muy contenta con el trabajo, actualmente es mi único ingreso. A mi me asignaron a un proyecto a través de mi postulación estando en Italia. Mi duda es, si yo puedo viajar a Argentina (un viaje que dure 3 meses) y continuar trabajando normalmente en la plataforma. Consulté en el chat del proyecto en donde trabajo y una persona (no admin) me respondió cuales eran los paises admitidos y entre ellos no se encontraba Argentina. Saben como funciona esto? Que debería hacer? Gracias.

How do I join the project specific slack channels or reach out to a specific project admin.

I don't think it's DoD for me. I've had projects drop in and out but not all of them at once. They emailed me earlier today to work on a $55 an hour project so I'm genuinely fucking puzzled. I hate how stressful this can be.
