Paypal holds your funds for 180 days as that is the same timeframe that buyers have to open paypal disputes.
So if no disputes are opened against you in 180 days then you are allowed to withdraw the funds as long as you were over 18 then and the account is in your legal name. Sometimes Paypal request further documentation from you before you can withdraw those funds.

So I have to wait for 180 days to get my money it cannot be earlier? Because I cannot even use PayPal I’m very sad.

If you have been permanently banned then sadly you have to wait the 180 days.
