it is very easy , you just use a local internet provider

I wouldn't worry too much about state location of IP - just having the country IP works for my accounts in USA...e.g. account registered in PA but IP from NV would still work fine...

instead of mail box,some can say it is office number XYZ,but it wont fool Ebay.
Does your father work,if so,use his office address,or some relatives nearby,these days you can opt to have Ebay deliver documents like tax forms and other correspondence via emails or download,Ebay rarely sent any physical mail to our home address.
There are more than one address you need to provide ,one is residential,one is for ship to ,when you buy on Ebay,one is ship from when you sell,one is return if buyer wants to return an item back to you.
Take a look at your Ebay account !

Have you worked with mailboxes agent? These do work well - of course a lot depends on how an account is operated

So idk if this changes things, but I set an automatic rule to refund buyers who want to do returns, with no return necessary. Does it matter when considering I won't be receiving any mail or returns? I was reading to use the post office address + PO Box as a suite # in the guide and planned to do that where it asks for registration address.

Doesn't really matter - the key is hopefully you aren't receiving tons of returns

Does anyone know why I'm getting this error?? I'm inserting the birthdate correctly. It's asking for MM/DD/YYYY. I am putting 12/14/1952, for December 14 1952, on eBay US. It's then saying "enter a valid date of birth".

Very odd - sounds like a glitch - maybe just worth retrying in 24-48h

I got it fixed swapping browser.
I signed up as a business account with very high limits.

But I just noticed it's asking me to give a full SSN, not EIN, for a form 1099k to know the business owner in the future if I sell. Is that normal? If I give my father's full SSN there, it won't come back to his taxes right? It should be under my EIN.

[rsot]

Hmm father full SSN in the system...potential to come back to his taxes...

rsot what do you mean "depends on how an account is operated" feel free to pm me if you want if you don't want it on open forums. do you mean it depends on what you're selling or does it depend on what info you used when creating the account?

For po boxes, from my experience, it's more for when you create the account - you enter the address in a way that it isn't "seen" as a po box - things have become tighter over time for sure but you have to look at the physical location of the po box as in the address of the building etc...

This forum is to help people.... so it doesn't make sense to do a PM.

He meant how you use the account, your activities determines if your account will be flagged or not
