I’ve never posted here, but I’m trying because I’ve tried Upwork and it’s pretty brutal.

I’m looking for someone who can create (max) 60 second training videos that are based on pre-existing screen recordings (and where relevant on device recordings) with a captions and a voiceover.

I have a very short timeline, so I just thought I would try here and see if it was at all possible.

I have all the recordings done all the scripts done. I have the details of the voiceover that needs to be used. I’ve context for every video that needs to be created, and example examples of previously completed ones that the new content basically needs to mirror.

If you think that this is something that you can do, reply, or send me a DM and we can go from there, or send me your upwork profile.

Looking for some realistic feedback. I came across some financial hardship a few years ago and ended up doing a consumer proposal. I closed it off December 2024 and it’s supposed to “fall off” my credit report August of this year. Following the consumer proposal, I prioritized rebuilding my credit. So I have two open and managed credit cards. My credit score is in the 700s. I make $175K/year (with an incremental bonus each year, but it can vary).

That being said, I’ve slowly started to look into buying a house, and found one that we really liked but I’m looking for some realistic feedback from mortgage brokers if I should even bother trying to apply now or should I just wait a few few months where hopefully the CP is officially removed.

Some additional information, I would be applying with my husband, his credit score is fine, but he does construction and the markets been a bit fickle so I’m really the only one with a study income right now.

So please let me know as a mortgage broker if you think us applying is even worthwhile right now or if we just should just hold off for a little bit. Also if you have any additional advice on things that I can do to further ensure that we would be approved, please share.

Thank you!

**EDIT** Thank to everyone with constructive feedback. I’ll take it as a lesson learned and have my employer validate the current amount of taxes being deducted and how to mitigate this in the future. Given the amount I am currently deducted, I had no reason to believe it would be insufficient. Either way it’s something I will look into. To all the people who were negative, it takes nothing to be kind. **

Looking for some advice as I’m about to be in a not so ideal situation.

Background: 2025 I spent most of the year on maternity leave, where I received both a top up from work and parental leave pay.

I recently went to file my taxes (via turbo tax) and was notified that I would owe about $20K, which I have no idea how i will pay, but that’s a whole other issue.

I’m back at work now, and am hoping for some direction on how I can avoid this happening again in the future. Should I request that more taxes is taken off each pay?

Is there any chance that turbo tax messed anything up? I feel like I went through all of the details multiple times and didn’t see anything out of whack.

I’m really stressed about this whole situation and I will of course try to call to do a payment plan, but either way I need to figure out how to avoid this in the future.

Any advice is appreciated!
