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 made quite a few "mistakes" on your profile, haven't you?
Canada? Really? You are no more in Canada than you are in the USA. You are in India.

hello, i need to change the country on mi profile. I'm located in Venezuela and upwork automatically sets United States, it does not let me change it, the option is not available, how can I do it?
Apr 5, 2018 12:33:37 PM by Taylor S
Hi, I overlooked the country when I signed up and now I encounter problems at the creating profile stage to verify the mobile and honestly where can i find the helpdesk ? where is the official email to contact upwork to delete a log-in email ? so I can re-sign up with my correct country bcos i could not access the contact info in the setting yet as it has not been validated and active

Oh PLEASE...
You did not "overlook" the country, you tried to pretend you're in the USA and got caught out at the phone verification stage. You even entered "Los Angeles"
That's not the only "discrepancy" on your profile either, is it?
Apr 5, 2018 01:49:27 PM Edited Apr 5, 2018 01:50:43 PM by Nina K
Hi Taylor,
As Petra mentioned, it is important for your profile to contain accurate and truthful information about your skills, education, experience and location. Please advise as to which country your account should reflect as your location, thanks!

Hi
- I am in Singapore, it is possible to change for me ?
I mentioned overlooked bcos as every newbie does, during any trying out stage, you will not think certain information is specifically crucial as it was thought to be an online submission/transaction type of thingy plus most (if not everyone) is specifically cautious regards to PDPA for something new... the LA is still a byproduct of "on-going exploration process", when i reached the mobile verification, it was realised that this portal meant something more than just a normal member portal ... it symbolises having certain level of assurance, hence, when I decided to progress further & tried to amend the country to Singapore, the tab was in grey, hence i painstaking searched this whole web for assistance bcos, honestly speaking, it is not as straight forward as thought to be ...
kindly help ? with thanks & appreciation

Hi, I'm currently in Vietnam so I can't use my USA address to make my Upwork account work. Can you change it to Vietnam so I can complete the profile as I'll be here for a couple of months?
Apr 23, 2018 08:59:45 AM by Nina K
Hi Aaron,
Your country has been changed to Vietnam. Kindly please update the rest of your address information within your settings to align with your current location. Thanks!
