How it works

Three steps. You see every price before you agree, and you only pay for an offer you accept.

  1. Step 1

    Describe it, free

    Say what you need in a sentence or two. Posting costs nothing.

  2. Step 2

    Get offers from people who’ve done it

    Taskers who have done this before send an offer with their own price. Ask questions, then pick one.

  3. Step 3

    Pay, and it’s held until done

    Accept an offer and pay. Taskly holds the payment until you say the work is done.

Good questions

The things people ask before they post in the US.

  • 01

    What does help moving and working abroad cost in the US?

    Most of it falls between $50–600, depending on how much you need. Each Tasker names their own price in their offer, so you see the cost before you agree to anything.

  • 02

    Where does H-1B employer data come from?

    Employers file labor condition applications with the US Department of Labor, and that data is published. Several free sites organize it by company, role and city, so you can see who has hired for your role before.

  • 03

    Can my credit history from another country help in the US?

    Sometimes. A few lenders work with services that translate credit history from certain countries. It depends on the lender and the country, so ask each card issuer before applying.

  • 04

    Who decides which credential evaluation a nurse needs?

    The state board of nursing. Each board lists the evaluation services it accepts and the report type it wants, so check the board's current instructions before you pay for any evaluation.

  • 05

    How does paying work?

    Posting is free. When you accept an offer you pay the agreed price. Your money is held by Taskly until you confirm the task is done. If you don’t, it’s released three days after your Tasker marks it finished — unless you report a problem.

  • 06

    Who are the Taskers?

    People who have done what you need: worked at the company, passed the exam, made the move. Every Tasker is reviewed and approved by a person before they work.

  • 07

    What can’t a Tasker do here?

    Career and everyday help only. Taskers do not give visa or immigration advice; for that, use a licensed consultant or lawyer.

What do you need done?

Tell us in a sentence. People who’ve done it send offers.
