Need help with my account that got Permanently limited  and have money in it with 361$. Recently I got permanently limited for the reason of possible fraudulent or high risk behavior when there is no single one of risk with my account because all im trying to use with paypal is receiving payments with my buyers. and guess what my hard earned salary is in my paypal getting held for 180 days and I need this money for my surgery recently I got my shoulder broke.

If you have been told your Paypal account has been permanently limited then Paypal tends to hold any funds for 180 days. This is the same time frame that buyers have to open Paypal disputes.

If no disputes are opened in 180 days then normally you are allowed to withdraw the funds. That is as long as you are over 18, the account is in your legal name and registered in the country where you reside.

Sometimes they confiscate funds under this policy.

Paypal also may request further documentation from you before you can withdraw those funds.
