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?

Hi,
I set my country to US mistakenly; I'd like to change it to Israel. The textbox is disabled.

My country is set to United States, but I live in Armenia. It requires a phone number to complete the registration.

Hi Vahan,
Please go to your profile Settings>Contact Info>Location(Follow the attested pic)
If above setting not works. Then definitely you need customer support help for this instance. Please email to them. Here is the customer support link: https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?utm_source=ada&utm_medium=bot&utm_campaign=handoff
Hope this help 🙂
Thanks

Can't change the country while signing up. It's set to United States, but I live in Armenia

Then wouldn't it have been a really neat idea to not set it to Los Angeles in the USA in the first place?
Why is your timezone showing as 4 hours ahead of where you say you are (just across the adriatic sea from me and on the same timezone as myself?)
Jul 31, 2019 11:48:03 AM by Bojan S
Hi Vahan,
Your Country was updated to Armenia. Feel free to add the rest of your address information.
Thank you.

I has to be set to where you actually live.
It has nothing to do with citizenship, dual or otherwise.
