Action needed: More info required to release your payouts

[ScottieBoi]

Message body-
As of Jan 1, 2022, the IRS now requires us to file and send a Form 1099-K to everyone who sells $600 or more.

Since you’ve made $600 or more in sales this year, we’ll need your full 9-digit Social Security number (SSN) or Individual Tax Identification Number (ITIN) to send you your 1099-K.

Please update your information so we can start sending your payouts and avoid other account restrictions.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who else has gotten this message? I'm guessing it's because this account hit $600 in sales. So, they're gonna require our full SSN on all accounts? Wonder what this will mean for us... Here is the message body-

I got the same message. They also accept EIN for business accounts as an alternative

Yes they need full SSN number and you’re good. If it’s a bogus ssn eBay will then ask you to upload a W9 form. Goodluck

So, they aren't gonna care about multiple accounts with the same ssn?

It's been reported on other threads that you can have up to 5 accounts with the same info.

Hmm. Haven't seen that. Ebay now allows people to have 5 accounts or is that just people's findings through trial and error?

[Roy3805]

I mean you can have 5 accounts but if one goes down they will all fail

eBay has ALWAYS allowed multiple accounts per person.

He said that you can have up to 5 accounts with the same info. That's why I was asking.

Yes you can but the goal is to not get accounts linked.. eBay will suspend you for anything. And to have all your accounts linked that’s not good
