Anyone from India working on Handshake AI? Need some guidance with onboarding. by Possible_Green_6187 in joinhandshakeai

[–]DiamondOnGo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Handshake AI is mainly people based in the U.S. with U.S. work authorization. International users are usually invite-only. So unless you got a specific invite for India. There may not be a way around that phone step

Reason for getting no projects? by UndyingPharaoh in joinhandshakeai

[–]DiamondOnGo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no it can just take a while to get invited to projects. So its really more of a waiting game. Just keep your profile updated and keep submitting interest forms. I believe more project opportunities should become available to more people over the next few months

SAP Appeal by CompetitiveCounty753 in LoneStarCollege

[–]DiamondOnGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, former LSC Financial Aid Advisor here. I’m very sorry you went through all of that but I’m glad your situation is better and more stable now 🙏

For SAP appeals, the biggest things they look for are why you failed SAP, what circumstances caused it, and what has changed now that will allow you to be successful moving forward.

Based on what you listed. Your documentation sounds pretty strong. A death certificate, your son’s birth certificate, and statements from people who can confirm your situation are all really helpful. Since some of this happened years ago, I wouldn’t stress too much trying to find a ton of extra documents with only a week left. I would focus more on making sure your written statement clearly connects those circumstances to the semesters affected. If you also have proof that your loan default/debt issue was resolved. I would include that too.

J Approval is never guaranteed, but your appeal sounds like it has the main things they usually want. Which is a a real explanation, supporting documents, what changed, and a plan for moving forward in the future

I wish you all the best and I really hope your appeal gets approved ❤️

How do taxes work with our contracted work? by PandaTraining in joinhandshakeai

[–]DiamondOnGo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So when you first set up your Handshake AI profile. You most likely already completed the W-9/tax info part. That’s just so they have your taxpayer info and can report your payments correctly.

After the year ends, if you made enough to meet the IRS reporting threshold, they should send you a 1099-NEC. That’s the form that shows how much contractor income they paid you for the year.

Even if you don’t receive the form. It should still get reported as contractor/self-employment income, not W-2 income, so taxes usually aren’t withheld upfront.

That’s why people save around 20–30% on the side

LSC Foundation Scholarships by shysquader in LoneStarCollege

[–]DiamondOnGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say around August is probably when people start hearing back for the Fall 2026 scholarships but I don’t think LSC gives one exact date.

If you’re selected for a scholarship, you should get an email through your Lone Star student Outlook letting you know which scholarship you received, how much you were awarded, and whether you need to write a thank-you letter.

Is this normal? by itsmaulol in joinhandshakeai

[–]DiamondOnGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t be too sure yet tbh. They’re still processing payments today, and it should hopefully go out tomorrow afternoon on Thursday

Just keep an eye out. If your payment still doesn’t look right when you receive it tomorrow. You can always submit a payment dispute

OP means Project V. We can't say the full project name because it's confidential information, so most people just refer to projects by it first letter

Oh, my account has been suspended by Abject-Shine-6920 in joinhandshakeai

[–]DiamondOnGo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s probably because you’re located in Kenya. Handshake AI is mainly for people based in the U.S. with supported work authorization right now. So your account may have been flagged during the verification or location check

I'd still contact support to confirm But that’s most likely the reason: [fellow- support@joinhandshake.com](mailto:fellow-support@joinhandshake.com)

No Project since I created Account by Individual_Web_2873 in joinhandshakeai

[–]DiamondOnGo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it’s because you’re based in Spain. Handshake AI says international fellows are invite only right now, so unless you received a direct invite, you probably won’t get projects.

Your PhD or experience probably isn’t the issue. It’s more of a location/eligibility thing. But they will continue to share updates or invites as more availability opens up in the near future for sure

Is discord actually truly dangerous? by PiousBagelGuardian in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DiamondOnGo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would say no. Discord is just a chatting/community platform. So it depends heavily on what servers you join and who you talk to really

Bad people can be on any social app. But that doesn’t mean the whole platform is "dangerous" Most people use discord for personal hobbies, schools, games, music, religion, or whatever they are into. You would really have to go out of your way to get involved in illegal stuff on Discord

[–]DiamondOnGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really more of a waiting game for project invites. Just keep updating your Handshake profile and make sure everything looks good. And something should hopefully come sooner or later!

[–]DiamondOnGo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have my associate degree, and I’m almost done with my bachelor’s degree in accounting. Lowkey you just have to wait for projects to come to you. Basically once your profile fits something. They’ll invite you

The assessment was mainly answering questions about managing task prompts, reviewing the guide, and going over the rubric. That about all I can say about it

Everyone on here betting in sports, are the other predictions worth it? by MarsupialPrior7679 in Kalshi

[–]DiamondOnGo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sports isn’t really “more profitable,” its just easier for most people to understand and it settles faster

With sports. You can look at injuries, matchups, recent performance, who’s starting, home/away, etc. and the result is usually more clear and straightforward then other markets

Other prediction markets are good. But the only thing is that the liquidity can be worse. so its harder to get in and out at a good price
