Can I fix incorrect name transliteration on Upwork?
My surname contains the letters Yu and Ya. During registration on upwork, out of old habit, I wrote them down as yu and ya(1). It was a long time ago, but I started freelancing just now. And now the question arose about withdrawing funds, and during registration on payoneer, I decided to double-check the transliteration rules and was surprised to find that now Yu and I are written as iu and ia (2) ( www.ufms.spb.ru/desc/pravila-transliteracii- dind-1... Question - on payoneer and in the W-8BEN form, write the old version (1) or still change the name to upwork and write the new version everywhere (2)? that a freelancer changes his name?I heard that they may require scans of documents for identification.

As for transliteration on UpWork.
He himself was afraid of inconsistency. Submitted a change request. (My name is Vasily - there are a dozen spelling options. The passport officer chose the most inappropriate one, but I didn’t keep track of it)
Then I read in the rules that name variants are possible without checks.
I wrote a Help Desk request to cancel the change, if possible, because I liked the first option more.
As a result, the request in HD hangs unread yet, and the name has already been changed to a passport one.
No documents were requested.
Those. do not panic - everyone, apparently, does not care about transcription.
There are Indians and Chinese on the site, their name options are less obvious.
