Help With PayPal Email Request

Hello there!

I recently received an "Action Required" message from PayPal asking for a U.S. taxpayer identification number (TIN). I am not a U.S. citizen, and I don't travel to or live in the U.S.  My freelance billing comes from work done for clients in the U.S (and other countries). Typically, in a "good year", I may bill U.S. clients under $4k-$5K. So:

 

a) Is anyone else in the community facing similar predicament?

b) Do I still need to action that request  - Form 1099-K?

 

Any assistance, response, suggestions, would be greatly appreciated.
