taxpayer status for non U.S. account
Account info:
Not a US account and not a US resident or citizen.
The account has real information but NOT verified (with ID or any documents).
I've made over 200 transactions but never reached 20.000$ or anything close to it. (in the past 3 months I had an increase of sales, I've received about 1.000$ per month, before that it was anything from 0$-400$)
I just logged in Paypal and got a notification saying, "Because you receive payment for goods or services through PayPal, you must verify your U.S. taxpayer status to avoid limitations to your account."
When I click on it I get one question with 2 options:
Confirm your U.S. taxpayer status
Is the account holder a U.S. entity, U.S. citizen or U.S. person under U.S tax law?
Yes No
If I choose NO, it opens a simple form with First name and Last name greyed out, asking for address, and then at the end another form to enter only the First name and Last name.
Can anyone advice about this?
Do they ask for more info after I click submit?
Does this limit the account? I noticed I haven't received any sales in the past 2 days, I'm assuming this was the reason.
