I'm going to be working as a freelance transcriptionist, the site will pay weekly in USD into my PayPal. I don't know anything about taxes and that kind of thing, please can someone give advice on what I'll have to pay, how to declare it, anything like that?
Thanks :)

Hi

To keep things simple, I would register as self employed

You may consider engaging an accountant initially.
