Hello everyone,

I got offer latter from georgian college. Now I am going to apply for my visa.

I have completed my bachelor's degree in 2013. After that I have two years (from june, 2013 to june, 2015) of industrial work experience.
After onwards (from july,2015 to till date) I am working as a freelancer.

My question is that how can I prove that I have been working as a freelancer ??
I have income-tex return for all these four years. So, Is income-tax return's are enough to prove work experience as a freelancer?
Or should I ask to my freelancer's clients for experience letter or reference letter?

Thank you in advance.

You should get letters certifying that you have "freelanced" for your clients. Those can be in form of reference, but they have to state the way they know you. You would also need the income-tax returns...

Thank you DanielEcu..

Yes.. i'll take Experience letter from my client. In that, should they need to mention that they hired me through upwork??
And yes, I have already income-tax returns..
