4) Why is my Chegg payment pending?
If you have not received your payment by the 18th of the current month, we would request you to wait for the 25th of the month. Sometimes, payments may get delayed. However, even after the 25th of the month, if you have still not received it, then your bank refused to process your payment even after multiple trials from our end. Don't worry, your payment is always safe with us, and we'll try and process it again in the next payment cycle (by the 18th of next month).
Payments are reversed mainly due to the following reasons:
1. Bank details submitted by you are incorrect or belong to a non-operational account.
2. Bank details provided by you pertain to an account which is JOINTLY held by more than 1 party.
3. Your name as per our records does not match with the name available in bank records.
5) How much does Chegg pay per solution?
The payout of solutions varies from subject to subject. At Chegg, you can earn up to INR 189 per valid solution. Payout details are shared after completing the hiring process of Chegg.
6) What is the highest Chegg payment/How much does Chegg pay monthly?
Earnings at Chegg depend upon the number of solutions you submit in a month. Some of our experts are earning more than INR 1 Lakh monthly. Chegg allows you to gain unlimited earnings as well as learning, as you learn more and more concepts by authoring solutions.
7) Am I allowed to change/update my bank details for payment?
We do not allow any Bank/Pan details to change in our system.
Only in case of a Bank Merger/Closure, do we allow bank details modifications.
For bank account closure/merger, please share bank closure/suspension/merger documents such as SMS/email from the bank. Also, the bank details should be yours.
Then, we will share the link to update your bank details and will update your bank details in our records, after verification.

8) Can I submit my parent's/friend's bank details?
Sorry, we ONLY accept details of bank accounts that have been opened in your name (Joint Accounts are also not accepted).
In case you submit account details that do not belong to you, your details will not be processed, and hence your payment will not be processed.
9) Why have you deducted 10% TDS from my payment?
As per the Income Tax Guidelines:
We are required to deduct 10% TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on all Expert payments that we process. For all such deductions made, we will provide you with a TDS certificate/Form 16A every quarter which you may use for claiming IT refunds (if eligible) at the time of filing your Income Tax Returns.
To claim your deducted TDS by filing Income tax returns, please refer to a professional Chartered Accountant.
10) Why is my payment not included in the TDS?
Payment credited month is considered for TDS submission. For example, the Chegg payment for March 2023 was carried out in April 2023, so the TDS consideration will be for April in the case of the March payout.
