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.

Hi Goran
It states in the message that this query is solved, but, I sent you a message to state that I still have the same issue. It states that the State/Province is in the USA, although the country is South Africa.
Please assist as I am unable to finalise the creation of my profile.

Hi, I'm stuck with my location editing, could you update it to Venezuela?
Thanks

Hi Alejandra,
Your country should reflect the one you're physically located in and be able to verify it. Would you like us to update your country to Venezuela?
Thank you!

I signed up for Upwork and my default country is selected to United States. But I live in India. 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?
Please help in changing my country to India

I am not able to change the country. It appears US and I can not click on it for change. I am not even living in US. I tried to solve the problem but nothing works.

You also want to change your name and your photo. Both need to be true and accurate and your photo has to be a photograph of you yourself.

Hello, It seems like a common problem. How do we change the location on the profile page? I have tried changing it in settings but it doesn't work.
