    I doubt it's any consolation, but I had a dream of home ownership. Now that I own a home, I wish I could go back to renting.

    Yep. I'm just sitting here hoping someone else will do it. The patented "Chris Turk Method" of dealing with requesters.

    Hey All! It's been forever since I have used any forums, using turk, just not communicating with people :) Hope everyone has been making money, on another note though, I have ran into a very infuriating issue (for me anyways). How in the world can I stop turkmaster from creating a scroll bar at the bottom of my browsers. (Sorry if this is the wrong spot to ask :) )

    I do think it is a great idea to start an S-corp. I am sorry you didn't get this mortgage, can you get someone do a manual under ride? like Church hill Mortgage?

    I spoke with the mortgage lender at the bank I work at a couple months ago because I was looking at using my part-time job income and mturk to qualify for a loan. She told me that all I would need is 2 years of tax returns showing increasing self employment income and both years needed to be enough to qualify for the loan I was looking for. She also told me that it would be best if I was at least a sole proprietor registered with the state for both years. (In WA state if you make over $12k/year you must register for a business lic of some sort.

    You will for sure need 2 years of returns with enough income to support the loan. If you recently quit a job then they won't look at that portion of your income since you no longer have it.

    Our mortgage lender has over 30 years experience in lending so I believe everything she told me. She also said that sometimes smaller local banks are willing to take more of a chance on people with self-employment income for mortgages.

    EDIT: Also don't mention crowdsourcing as you've already learned. State it as something like "transcription/data entry or consulting services". Those are things they understand.

    Haha, I am behind. It is what works best for me though. It is screwing up my personal scripts, and driving me nuts.

    This makes a ton more sense to me than a person claiming they can read 2000+ words per minute.

    Thanks, I had joined when it first was started, when mturkgrind went to hell, and we lost a favorite member. Bummed me out and I just was worried about grinding and making money. It says I am a new member, but I am kinda old. Just been behind the scenes
