I worked for NTI this past tax season and last year. I have mixed feelings about working for them. Your hours are based on call volume, so the season lasts about 3 months. If you're on benefits you have to be careful (I wasn't) that you don't go over the amount you're supposed to have. If you do as advised and make your schedule as available for all or most working hours during the day, they will give you large breaks so that you are invariably sitting at home all day (what can you do with two-1 hour breaks that are spaced apart? No time to even leave the house to run an errand) and waiting to clock in. Then if the call volume drops, they ask you, then plead with you to take time off. Of course you don't have to take it off but it's annoying. If you're interested, I would give it a go. I still have about $1000 on a medical debit card I still have to use. That part worked great for me since I have no dental coverage and need to get my teeth fixed. Just don't have any illusions that you are going to be one of their star performers and stay on the whole year. They probably keep less than 25% of the people they hire...but it could happen ;-)

Hi everyone,
Did anyone hear of "National Telecommuting Institute?"
I received a letter that appears that this company may be
getting referrals from state or federal agencies, and targeting people
that are on SSDI & SSI.
