What is the best way to sign Confirmation of Services with Upwork on a monthly basis?
Every month, when I transfer money from Upwork to my IP account, I need to provide documents to the currency control, including the signed Upwork Confirmation of Services.
Now my algorithm is this: every time I take the PDF template that they sent, enter the date, name, amount, signature, then create a Ticket in the support system in the "Get Paid > Other' section.
But it's really long. They look at the ticket only the next day, and they don’t always answer right away. More often on the first day they write something like: “Oh, we don’t know what it is, we need to look and think.” Then another day later: “Yes, it seems like you can sign it wait.” Then the weekend comes, and at best by Monday I get the signed document.
Is there any simpler and more efficient way to sign this document? Maybe it's wrong to do it through the support form on the site?

Actually, how else would you sign it?
Sent to Upwork - wait for a signed document from them.
True, I always receive a signed document the next day (I communicate in a chat, they create a ticket themselves).
Of course, someone puts his signature in the editor himself: here everyone decides for himself whether it is worth doing this or not (obviously, the law is being violated).
The maximum that can be optimized is to create a certain template for a chat letter, where, with each translation, insert a new link to the dropbox - for COS.
Well, or not send money every month
Damn, sign it yourself, it's just a piece of paper from paint or Word, in fact
I asked the same thing a month ago: Who requests CoS from Upwork? - strange but there are still no answers, everyone silently injects and continues to eat the cactus, apparently.
And this really sucked, despite the fact that this form of adding a ticket crashes every other time (and then you have to copy-paste it all into the chat) and there the attachments have been broken for a month now and you have to insert a link to the pdf through dropbox into the comments.
The last time they only sent me on the 3rd day - the ticket was apparently lost with a low priority, on the 2nd day they kicked them, realized it and on the 3rd they finally sent it.
I write to them in the chat, throw the act there, and they themselves create a ticket. Then you have to wait a day or two until the signed act is sent from above. In the chat, as a rule, they are already aware of what kind of act it is, and if something happens, they can be convinced in real time that it needs to be signed.
