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?

Hello. So sorry to come with the same issue. The country on my profile is set up to Netherlands. It should be Romania. I live in Bucharest. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have the rights to change the country. Can you please help me? Thank you so much!

Hi,
I have this problem too. Country information was completed automatically as Albania during profile creation and I was unable to change it to Romania. Kindly modify it.
Thank you.

Hi, I am having this issue too. I'm from the US but I live in Spain. It will not let me change to my Spanish address and I cannot validate the account because it wants a US phone number, which I do not have access to over here.
