Updating address error

I am trying to submit my first proposal and I get an error message that I need to update my address.  I updated it under Contact Info, but I keep getting the error message.  Have refreshed the page and gone into a private browser.  What is going on?

Hi Michaela, 


Please fill-in the City field on the Address section of your Contact Info page and see if the issue persists. 

In the meantime, I would definitely recommend that you update your profile overview, and title to add your specific skills, and experience. These will be helpful to a client when reviewing freelancers profile in your specific job category. One way writing your overiview is to show how you can help potential clients with their project. Here are help articles that may help you with creating a more competitive profile: 

I hope this helps! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have other questions.
