Ssn
 

Omg, why is PayPal asking for my ssn and since when did they do this. I have money that won't release until I get it. Omg 😱

How I can I get one??? What do I do

Re: Ssn
 

Use an EIN

Are you actually based in the USA?

Re: Ssn
 

They have been requiring a Tax ID for years, on USA accounts.

You can only get one by being born in USA

What's an EIN? Before my account got suspended they never did I bought this account that she came with something

Re: Ssn
 

An EIN is an Employer Identification Number. They can be used on USA accounts as a Tax ID, in place of an SSN.

They require this information from you because they are required to report your income to the IRS once you pass the 200/$20000 threshold.

So, if you do decide to apply for an EIN, just make sure you are prepared to file taxes for the EIN next year.

I only sell small items, like in 3 months I've only made about 2500 dollars, is there anything I can do?

Re: Ssn
 

If you are in the USA and have an SSN then you can easily get an EIN and add that to PayPal

Re: Ssn
 

Size of item doesn't matter.....File for an EIN, Apply it to PayPal.

Re: Ssn
 

Excellent point. Is it even possible to get an EIN without having an SSN to apply with?

Re: Ssn
 

I am pretty sure you can get an EIN from outside the USA without a SSN, but you are limited to just the 1.

May have to wait for others to confirm that though!

Re: Ssn
 

I believe it's called a TIN if your out of the Country.

Re: Ssn
 

Thx y'all, I appreciate it 😘

Re: Ssn
 

First of all, settle down and tell us exactly what the message was from paypal?

What did it say?

Tell us about the account too. Need its age & what you are doing.

:ranger:

Re: Ssn
 

That's right MM78 - foreigners get access to TIN

Lol, you act like you know me. You must've seen some of my past posts, they never really asked for it, I just open my information and saw SSN number and it was blank , lmfao. So I overreacted as usual. I really need a chill pill most of the times because I always freakout, lmfao omg. And yes, I'm in the US and I deal with very popular high quality, products. Of course, they're truly authentic and I offer a 30 day return, money back guarantee. ✌️

Re: Ssn
 

I'm mainly freaking because they put a hold on my already released money because a lady couldn't understand what I was saying and opened a Paypal case on me. And I could've won, because I do have the emails of me telling her exactly what it was and she claimed the item wasn't as described. So because my return address wasn't "mine" I lost. That will never happen again, I went ahead and sent her the other one, on me. I had proof, but it was really Stressing Me Out. Live and learn, I just want Paypal to take my hold off.
Does anyone know once the case is closed how long they hold it for, because she did close it and I explained my part.
