Can't change country

[#1]

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 everyone!

I am trying to finalize my Freelancer account at Upwork but I am running into issues with changing the location information.

My country is set to the US and I am unable to change it to any other country. I tried the Community Bot to figure this out myself, but I could not find any solutions. I currently reside in Croatia and am planning to move to the UK in September. Per my understanding, I should still be able to work for Upwork even if I do not reside within the US. Could anyone help me resolve this issue? Thank you!

Best,

Filip

Your country was updated to Croatia as per your request, Filip.

Thank you!

Thanks! The country has indeed been updated to Croatia; however, the webpage still requires me to select a US city and state and won't let me proceed onto the next step of Account Activation. I want to add 'Zagreb' to the City Input Box and select 'Grad Zagreb' as my State/Province but that is just not possible.

Hi Filip,

Please try clearing your cache and cookies or logging in with another browser. I would also recommend adding your street first before going to the City field. Thank you.
