PayPal Request SSN Ok To Use EIN?

I have a Paypal Personal account with legit info. However, my SSN is linked to a previously legit account that has been perma-banned. Is it safe to apply for an EIN thru the IRS and then use instead of an SSN number? If it is safe, do I need to apply for a business PayPal account first?

Yes, get that EIN and try putting it to PP.

Should I do it immediately or can I drag my feet a bit? How long do I have because I am nowhere near the $20,000 mark

Paypal can ask you to provide your tax payer info (SSN, EIN...) much earlier. If they calculate that you will go over the limit in december they can ask for this info in march. It happened to me.

Once they ask you for it, how much time do they usually give you until they limit you?
