I chose a wrong country by mistake at the time of registration.

Hi Leila,

Could you please let us know your current location and our team will update the country on your profile?

Thank you.

Hello Aleksandar,

Thank you for your prompt reply. My current location is Iran.

I just realized that I cannot register with this country (tried with a different device). I think I'll need to ask you for a location change once I go back abroad. If there is any other way, please let me know. Thank you.

Unfortunately, due to US sanctions against Iran you can not work on Upwork, which is a US business.

I moved to Spain before verifying my account, and now the location shows as USA and I can change it. I would like to set my location to Spain so I can move on with creating my account. Thanks!

Oh please...

You created your account YESTERDAY and have since "moved to Spain" where you've been studying for years and likely have always lived? It would be so refreshing if one of you people just came right out and admitted that they tried to set their location to USA because it seemed cool and a bright idea and more lucrative, and got caught out by the phone verification thing.

Yes, I proudly live in Spain, but I've been working in the USA for some months, where I created the account.

I just expressed it that way so that it would be easier to understand and straight to the point. You really shouldn't take so many (ridiculous) assumptions that quickly.
