[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8982586, member: 6801845"] Easy enough to do for employees that are local. Different story if those freelancers could be anywhere in the U.S. or even in another country. WOTC is Seattle based, are they supposed to have a list of resources available in Boca Raton? What if the freelancer is in New Delhi? There are also potential liability issues depending on many, many factors especially when you start crossing state lines. It's not necessarily a simple ask. In addition, there's also not a lot that they could provide that isn't a simple google search away. It's truly sad that people have to put up with the crap that the person was talking about but there is simply very little WOTC can do about it. I'm sure they can come up with a PDF for those in the states with numbers for support that anyone can easily find, but the benefits provided to freelancers and contractors is extremely limited in this country. The only thing I ever got from companies I did contracting for was a pay check. [/QUOTE]
