I regularly engage in freelance assignments through HN. I have found most of these clients to be serious and committed professionals / businesses who value my work, and pay on time.

This is the main reason I opt for freelance work rather than going full time. I don't want to spend so much time preparing for an interview / test / what-not only to be stalled or excused for some unmentionable reason.
Freelance market is awesome these days with more businesses reducing in-house staff and outsource whatever they can to cut operational costs.
In 2005, the earth trembled with a ferocity that shook our nation to its very core. The worst earthquake in our history left over 100,000 souls lost to us and 3.5 million displaced, a gaping wound that scarred us for years to come.
Social media was unheard of at that time. News sites and blogs were primary sources of information. I set up a WordPress blog to collect and disseminate critical information.
Spending 4-5 hours every day, I compiled information about relief efforts and rehabilitation activities. There was a section for missing persons too.
The blog was mentioned in the publications like the Washington Post, the New York Times, CNBC etc. It remained at number one spot in search engines for quite some time.
But it was the comments and emails from those who found hope in the midst of the chaos that truly fueled my drive. I heard from people who had reunited with their loved ones, others who received vital on-ground aid, and still others who found ways to lend a helping hand.
Though my blog may now be archived, the memory of those days still lingers on. For in that moment of crisis, I found the strength to make a difference, and my efforts brought light into the lives of so many.
I have worked with several US & European companies as freelance / outsourced resource. Had to sign some documents confirming that I am not the resident of clients' countries. There were no issues whatsoever in payments or anything else.
Maybe it is your tax status that's causing the issue. Have you considered forming an LLC (or equivalent in your location) and applying through it?
If you're a startup looking for a senior developer or a business interested in MVP to test a hunch, feel free to reach out.
