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.

You changed my location to Taipei, Australia. This is incorrect.
I live in Vienna, Austria. Please change it again.
Thanks

Hey,
It still says Taipei, Australia on my profile. I want to change it to Vienna, Austria. I have tried to update it in Settings, but it won't work.
I don't know what else I can do?

It doesn't, it says Taipei, Austria. The timezone is also wrong.
You need to update the city yourself under settings.

Hello!
I'm currently trying to create my profile on Upwork, but can't choose the right country. For some reason, France is auto selected, and I'm currently in The Netherlands.
Thank you in advance for your help.

I am having the same problem. I am an american citizen working in the US but started creating my profile while visiting South Africa and it has automatically selected SA as my home country. It is grayed out though and am unable to modify it. Can you please help me with this so I can finalize my application? Thank you in advance.
