Odesk you can't, Elance did not say anything about it. And that is not stopping him from freelancing himself. There's plenty of opportunities in the Hiring Freelancer thread as well.

I'm not familiar with these issues however, so I'll refrain from posting more haphazard advice. I just feel the OP could make some more effort.

@manglav Thank you for your response , for your information I have to say that all money processing systems banned Iran and Iranians to work with the system , as I already mentioned I have worked with an Employer from Netherlands in 2010 and I was Just doing freelancing but because of sanctions he could not sent money to me in my bank account and redirected the amount to a bank account to Bank of America which one of my relatives lived there. I have tried to work with the options you mentioned but they have banned Iran already. And I do want to work and have a job but not in Iran.

I wasn't aware of all the difficulties, I'm very sorry. This might be the perfect use case for bitcoins however...at least until you can emigrate.

I was totally unaware of such currency existence, Thank you for the information, It seems its market and exchange is still mostly in US and It seems it started to happen in 2009 , 4 years ago and I did not know anything about it, however, How can I find latest information like these new happenings in internet , from where can I get informed regularly? I should read TechCrunch regularly? any other place? thank you again.

I was trying all past years to search and read as many news as possible in Hacker News , StackExchange and some other forums ... any better place to get informed?

I've seen bitcoin on HN at least a couple of times in the past month, so maybe just read a bit more thoroughly. Your sources seem fine, but I would add Arstechnica to it.

Thank you , I have been heard of this web site, now I have bookmarked it. It seems very few people were interested to answer those questions I have asked , maybe I should post this somewhere else to get better input? I sincerely appreciate your time spent here typing comments for me.

Two things - 1. This is a hard problem to respond to. 2. From what I've seen, most people on HN respond better when they see the OP has made some effort. Sort of like a homework problem. Your post mentioned very little about what you've done to get out of your situation, so that may have been why they were not enthusiastic to respond. I sincerely believe with your set of skills, you should be able to support yourself easily and anonymously if needed, or even emigrate. Great programmers are needed everywhere. Try looking for a company started by an Iranian, and apply there! There's always a way. Good luck!
