Paypal limited. Ssn verification help!!!

[liimey]

I am a Canadian resident, currently using a USA based account to sell from and receive funds in PayPal.
PayPal just limited my account and have asked for the SSN number. But as I am in Canada naturally i do not have this SSN. Is there anything I can do?

You can tell them that you are a Canadian, Currently living in the U.S. They will most likely ask you to open a Canadian Paypal account though

If that easy I would open Canada account :-)

Agree with Slapped - though you may still be asked to provide drivers license and health card for Canada proof then.

You contact paypal and offer your Canadian ID as an alternative to the SSN.


Also please beware of this:

IF ANYONE OFFERS HELP WITH SSN, both accounts will be banned. Forum does not tolerate misuse of anything to do with SSN. This applies to any user hoping, thinking they can try something OR supply something.

yes indeed. i have done that with 2 accounts and both worked like a charm, no problems..

Good Advice! Maybe other "Americans" will catch on............
