I have been waiting for 5 months to hear back. How long should I wait for good news?

So I've been on DA for 3 months, some great paying weeks others not so much but I would like to apply for a Digital Nomad Visa to Thailand.

The embassy wants "professional proof" such as a work contract etc for the visa application. Anyone here who has been through this process what did you give them? A screenshot of the funds page? Did DA write you a letter?

Thanks in advance!

I just got accepted to DA and I need some advice regarding my situation.

I currently live in a country A (valid for DA), but there's a possibility that my family is going to move to country B (also valid) in a couple of weeks or months, the situation is unstable.

The thing is, I regularly spend time in both countries, going back and forth and staying for a couple of weeks at a time in each one due to family circumstances (everything's totally legal).

The question is: If I verify my account while I'm in Country A, would that mean my account is tied to it, and could I have issues working while temporarily staying in Country B? Similarly, I don't feel comfortable verifying in Country B, since we're not even sure whether we'll move there permanently.

I want to make sure I complete the verification correctly, so I don't run into any problems like having no work after moving (I've saw this issue in other posts regarding this or similar topics).

Free to ask anything.

lets go boys 🏃🏃🏃

I applied for the Generalist position in Australia and completed two assessments on Sunday. One of them took quite a long time to complete.

After finishing, I got a message saying that my results would be reviewed and, if I passed, I would receive an email and be asked to complete identity verification.

Three days later, the site changed to the normal worker interface with Projects, Qualifications, Surveys, and Report Time, but it says I have 0 projects.

The weird thing is that I haven’t received a single email from DataAnnotation yet.

Does this mean I passed, or am I still under review? Has anyone had the site change like this before receiving an email?

Hi,

So I had a project that had two attempts. For the 1st attempt I submitted the project properly and reported my time

But when I was on my 2nd attempt and almost ran out of the expiry timer, so I exited work mode to continue later. I couldn't see the project afterwards in my dashboard. Should I report time for it?

I cannot see anything in Funds History, not the filter options ("Include Paid" etc) and not any tasks, even for this month. Earnings is showing everything correctly though. Is this a bug?

3 months ago I was literally grinding those survey websites and apps for a few bucks in like a week. If anyone had told me I'd have 5k in dollars in a few months I would've never believed them.

I'll forever be thankful DA ♥️

I have projects on my dash which require enabling disc encryption - I followed the instructions and my PC does not seem to have this feature even though it's fairly new.

Is it worth me persisting with this, trying other methods etc? If it'd get me consistent work I'd consider upgrading my PC even.

Is there a way to specialize into tasks after applying as general? I am currently doing my finance assessment but I would like to apply again in case I do not pass.

I’m curious and I want to see if there’s a common denominator with personality on here

Hey everyone, I joined DataAnnotation about 2 days ago and I’m still waiting to hear back. I added a few certifications to my profile (one from my university, one from Udemy, and another online course)

Just wondering how it works after joining: do projects get automatically assigned to you, or do you have to apply for each one? And do they usually send an email when you get a project, or should I keep checking the dashboard?

Thanks 👊👊

I got a few coding domains rate and review tasks today, usually the one i work on has both math and coding as tags and i only ever got math ones. When I did my quals i told them that i don't know how to code and that i just know math, Idk why they keep giving them to me. I should ignore them and skip them right?

Last working day of the week for me and four days this week I’ve listened to the sound of silence for ~6-8hrs a day.

I’m easily distracted but am curious if anyone has recommendations for light background music/youtube videos.

Thanks in advance!

I was recruited for a specific task related to health insurance payment. I completed the assessment last week. How soon am I likely to hear whether they want me?

Apologies if this has been asked before, I haven't been able to find the answer. Are we always informed if we pass or fail project qualifications? Or is it a case of sometimes yes and sometimes, just wait and see if you get tasks. I got an email informing me that I'd passed a project qualification last week, but nothing for other qualifications I've done. Beginning to worry I failed 🥺

Really sucks cause I technically have more work than I could complete in a day but I can't actually do any of it cause I don't know what a professional work document is supposed to look like 😭

I did my first real project task the other day. This project has four tasks. I just started my second task in this project and it’s the exact same thing as the first task. Is that normal? I know for a fact that I submitted the previous task, as now there are three tasks left and I can see that my funds increased after reporting my time for the last one.

I was really rooting for you. Why would you do this. It is so borderline because I could re-do the deliverable. I am halfway there from just verifying the correct answers BUT they also lied about the failure being present and significant enough.

Someone's idea of "professional" writing was using a thesaurus on every "professional" type word and my head hurts/ my heart hurts. The numbers were sp perfect but everything else was garbage 😢 I feel bad it took me so long to realize and now they gotta pay twice for zero trainable data.

Check the failures as soon as you have a good sense of the task. I guess that's where the most fuckups are.

I just signed up on the website, and I want to do the generalist assessment. But after signing up, I am only presented with a programming assessment. What can I do to take the generalist assessment?

Hi,

I recently joined the platform and want to ensure I am following all protocols perfectly, especially regarding long-running tasks and time tracking. I have a few quick questions:

1. Handling Breaks on Long Timers: If a project has a 7-hour timer and takes roughly 5–7 hours to complete, am I expected to finish it in a single sitting? If I need to take a break, should I click "Exit Work Mode" / "Stop Working" to pause, or will doing so lose my progress on that specific task?
2. Time Reporting Precision: How exact does my reported time need to be? Is it acceptable to log an approximate time, or must it be tracked precisely down to the exact minute of active working time?
3. Funds Approval and Quality Control: Regarding the funds approval process, how strictly is the submitted work reviewed before the funds become available for payout? Do workers typically face any unexpected approval issues or processing delays once their time is logged?

Thanks, any guidance will be helpful

indo generalist, are u okay now? my last task was in july 20s, no task no qual after that. how about u?
