Can't change country

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 started my profile while I was still living in the US, but have since moved back to Canada and have not been able to change my country.  If someone could help update the country to Canada, it'd be much appreciated.

Hi there! I accidentally clicked on the US as I was setting up my profile but I live in the Philippines. I can't change my country through Settings as I haven't completed my profile yet but I can't change it either in the profile setup page. Please help, thank you!

HELP! I started to create a profile when I was in the UK but live in the US and now I can't finish the verification because I can't change the address to a US address and therefore can't put in a US number.
