My account was terminated in February and PayPal is holding the money in the account for 180 days.  I need the money with all all the covid 19 issues is there anything that can be done to get the money released and transferred to my checking account before the 180 days is up?

Sadly you won't be able to.


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.
