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?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello,
Please change my default country from US to Philippines (refer to my billing address).
I can create a profile because the country code is +1, it should be +63.
I can't also login to my "Client" Account because I am always directed to " https://www.upwork.com/ab/create-profile/introduce-yourself/ "
Your immediate attention would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Olan,
Your country is now updated.
In order to be able to switch between profiles (freelancer and client) you will need to submit your application for a review. If you opened a freelancer profile by mistake our team can close it from our end. If you have any additional questions let me know, thank you.

Hi Ricky,
Please start typing your address in the field "Start typing your Address". You will see drop down menu with suggestions, once you`ve picked one everything will be auto populated. Thank you.

Hi Goran,
Thanks for the reply. I did try filling my address but cannot find the auto-generated city options.
Is there a way to show you my address and assist?
Thanks!

Hi Jas,
In the Address field, please type-in your address to see if it will auto-populate with different addresses. You should be able to choose your address from there, and when you click on it, the rest of the fields should auto-populate.
Let me know if this doesn't resolve your issue. Thank you.

Hi Ricky,
Unfortunately at the moment you can't send me a PM with your address. But, one of our team members will reach out to you directly via ticket/email and assist you further with your address. Thank you.

I'm trying to create my account, but it thinks I'm from the US and doesn't let me change the country. Therefore, I cannot change the phone number and validate my account. I tried to get backwords but it didn't help.
