I signed up for Upwork while I was travelling but didn't finish my profile. My country is set to Serbia but I now live in the US. Every time I try to access the account settings page to edit location it just redirects me to the "create profile" page. How am I meant to change my country before submitting my profile for review?

I apologize for the inconvenience this caused, Francesca.
Your country should reflect the one you're physically located in and be able to verify it.
Would you like us to update your country to Spain?

Hello. I'm from Saint-Petersburg, Russia. But since 2018 I am residing in Dharamsala, India. Maybe I will stay here some kind a 3 years more, it connected with my studying process. Right now my profile country is "Russia", but maybe it should be the place where im actually staing now. If it is some strict rules about this, please, change my profile country to India. Thank you!

Hi Upwork community,
When I was setting up my profile, I wasn't able to change my location from France (greyed out) to Brooklyn, NY where I currently live. When I go to change the location in my tax information (says I must change it here before changing it on my actual profile), it asks me for my password and then takes me back to the homepage once I've entered it. Any ideas on how to solve this?
Thanks,
Victoria
