I think I finally found what I needed, to a certain extent, but the directions are different.    First, I have to, of course, go to "Activity" and "Statements" like this says, but then I have to click on "See More Reports."  Then I go to "Activity Download."  Next when I select a date range, I have to select the calendar image at the bottom and then click back month by month until I reach the month and year I am looking for.  Then I have to select a day on the calendar before I can bring up the right dates. Finally, I can click "Create Report."    This seemed to have helped me pull up most of the dates I need, but it only goes back exactly 7 years.  Is there a way to go back more than 7? I can't even go back to the beginning of January 2015, which is frustrating because I have spent the past two weeks just trying to retrieve this information and now those are more dates lost.    Well, I really hope this information helps someone else looking for help with the same problem, because I kept seeing the same inaccurate information every time. Maybe the website changed sometime and the steps listed need to be updated.  ... View more

Thank you for replying. Unfortunately, the Paypal website information you posted does not seem to be accurate. I have tried this many ways, and cannot go back 7 years as it says. One problem is that when I select Activity and then Statements, the next page does not have the word, "Custom."  The best I can do from there is guess, but even when I try different things, there is no option to go back 7 years.  I'm very worried because I'm being audited going back to 2014 and about to have my wages garnished for amounts I will be paying on the rest of my life. This is because I cannot access these statements to show any expenses, and the IRS is treating my ebay sales as if they were all profit, when most was expense. Apparently, if they audit you for one year, they see you as an easy target and then audit you for multiple years.  I have tried calling the customer service line multiple times to talk to someone, and I tried sending a message and talking to someone on Facebook but have not been able to talk to a real person. I have already gotten a tax lawyer involved, and I desperately need help because this is literally about to ruin my life.  ... View more
