It's very simple to do in the US.

Go to your Local city hall, the town you live.

Tell the city clerk you want to set up a Business in the following format.

John Smith DBA (Doing Business As) Ebay Magic

It cost about $20.00 and the whole process takes 10 minutes, at most.

Then get an EIN here: Employer ID Numbers (EINs)

Now go to your Bank and open a checking account in the New business name: John Smith DBA Ebay Magic

The whole process takes 60 minutes not including drive time.

You can buy me dinner at the next Annual GreanBean Stealth Party ;)

thn i would be able to use that info for the paypal account that is having a limitation asking for the SS# or EIN#? that would take care of this correct?

thanks a lot roscoe

This is to supplement Roscoe's advice.

Use this site

Internal Revenue Service

It has the full details of what you need to do to create an EIN, regardless of what state you live in the USA. It has a further advantage of having a toll free number. You can call that and speak to tax professionals who (mostly) answer your questions.

This suggestion has been given to others who have gone on to successfully create EINs . In turn the EIN has been supplied to paypal & restoration of the account done.

Good Luck
