Hi I just make a company in US and Obtain my EIN and make PayPal for my company as I provide SEO services.

 

I am foreigner from Pakistan so I do not have a  SSN but have a EIN.

 

I attach a EIN letter from the IRS in the resolve documents but it was rejected twice as he require documents according to (CIP).

 

Please tell me what should I do. How I resolve this Problems.

 

Or can I continue to use my PayPal as the only limitation is that I cannot close my account. 

 

I ask the Merchant Solution Specialist he suggest that 

 

"If you cannot provide SSN provide your EIN # and write up a Word document explaining that you do not have an SSN because you are not from the U.S. but your business is located in the U.S. "

 

So I provide my EIN letter, Passport , Company formation documents but PayPal again reject my application by saying

 

Thank you for choosing PayPal!
