Hello,

We are requesting MTurk Workers from the following countries to log into MTurk and complete a tax interview at this link (https://worker.mturk.com/account/taxinterview2) no later than Sep 30, 2023. If we do not have your tax information by Sep 30, 2023, you may be ineligible to continue to use your Mturk Worker account, which could also result in withheld payments. If you have already taken this interview, you do not need to take it again.
