eBay Suspended & PayPal Limited Forums

Starting to stealth out on PayPal using a US. 1 year old almost with a few transactions and received a bit of a larger sum than usual.
The account has received $500 at once before with no issues.

I got hit with this:

Says I need to confirm taxpayer info, any idea on how to get around this?

"The IRS informed us that the name and tax ID number in your PayPal account doesn't match their records. The IRS requires this info for anyone who receives $600 or more in payments for goods and services in a year.

Provide your tax info as it appears on your tax return."

The account is an individual account instead of using a business name and EIN?

Do you have a lot of money tied up in the account? Might be unresolvable leading to a 180 day wait

No, I refunded the buyer's account. Waiting on them to resolve the ID, hopefully should be no issues now.
