Hi - I'm trying to set up my profile, but I've run into a problem. I live in Vietnam, working for the US Consulate, but my address for tax purposes is in the US. My phone number is a Vietnamese number. In setting up my profile, I've had to list the United States as my country, and I can't find a way to set a Vietnamese phone number for account verification purposes. The system autofills +1 for my phone number, and it won't let me change it to +84 (the Vietnamese prefix). Any suggestions for a workaround?

Hi Brian,
On Upwork, your address on your account will have to be your current location. In this case, if you are not travelling in Vietnam, and have a permanent address there, you will need to add your Vietnamese address.
I would also recommend that you consult with a legal advisor regarding questions about tax. Let me know if you want me to update your country from the U.S. to Vietnam.
