What to know before you apply

Pay
At the published rate, 10 hours a week would be about $650–$750 and 20 hours about $1,300–$1,500 before tax. Hours depend on the project, so treat this as a ceiling, not a promise.
Location
Open worldwide in the countries the employer accepts. Payments usually go out through services like PayPal or Wise, so check one of them works in your country.
Credentials
The listing asks for a CPA (or similar). Put it in the first line of your profile: reviewers screen for it before anything else.
Timing
This listing is new today. Projects can close once they have enough people, so it is worth applying while it is open.
Test tips for accountants
  • Show the journal entries or the tax computation, not just the conclusion.
  • State the standard and country (IFRS, US GAAP, local tax code) before you judge an answer.
  • Check dates and thresholds: AI often uses last year's rates.
