November 4, 2025Upwork setup - Canada
You’re not allowed to work as a visitor in Canada. You need an open work permit to be able to freelance. If you start getting clients, Upwork will require some Canadian ID, which I guess you don’t have, so they will suspend your account permanently and you won’t be able to withdraw the money you earned.

r/Upwork on Reddit: Canadian freelancer getting shafted by not having a U.S. profile location
February 10, 2025 -
Multiple times now I'm finding posts that are the perfect fit for what I do, only to find out I can't submit my proposal because the company is only accepting applications from the US.
As a Candian, we share timezones with the U.S. and I believe companies put "US only" as a way to filter out people who are in undesirable timezones, don't have a culture match, or might lack English-speaking skills.
It's frustrating as heck knowing that these companies certainly wouldn't care if someone was from Canada given how similar we are, but don't consider that when posting their job post.
Has anyone found a way around this?
I know if the company lists their name in the proposal, you can reach out directly, but not all of them list their brand name.
