Greetings everyone,
I am a Non-US translator and opened a PayPal account a few years ago and have been receiving payments for my services without problems. Recently, I received a mail from PayPal asking me to verify my TaxPayer Status information. Given that I am not a resident of the US and not doing business particularly in the US, I clicked on the link and checked the "NO" for the question "are you a US-Resident", then I chose my current country of resident added my current address, but I need to provide a first name and a last name. I am using a PayPal account name that is different from my real name for business purposes. What name should I be entering in the verification form? Should I use my business name or my personal name?
My account is verified and I have never had a problem with Paypal payment. This is because, as a translator, I always finish the work and send the final documents and then get paid later.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Ayesha for your reply.
I guess that's the best way to get the best help possible.
I was hoping someone went through the same process and might share their experience.
Thank you again and have a great day.
