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?

Like most folks on this platform it seems, I cannot change my country during my account creation and thus am stuck with "United Kingdom".

 

Could you please set my account to "Netherlands" so I can go to the next step and enter a dutch number.

Hi Nathan,

Your country is now updated, thank you.

Re: can i change my Profile location to Spain?

 

If that is where you live (and you can prove it if needed) - Sure.

 

Yes I can do that no problem.

Kind regards

Kieren

Hi thank you for responding. I would be happy to forward proof of address. If you can give me a contact email.

Can you change the location or do I need to contact someone else?

 

Kind regards Kiere

Hi Kieren,

Thank you!
