Hi Create,

Your country is now updated, please keep in mind that your name needs to be your full legal name as well. Thank you.

when creating my profile, the address section doesn't allow me to change the country, and by default it is United States. If I put any random address, then I was asked to provide an U.S. phone number for verification.

Upwork doesnot all anyone from China for regestration?

Hi Dustin,

We do allow users from China to sign up on Upwork, your country was updated to China. Feel free to update the rest of your address when you`re ready. Thank you.

Same here - I signed up a while ago and my location changed. I'm currently in Poland - if you could update it that'd be great.
