Started Paypal 10 years ago, or so? USA address, etc. but now I do not live in USA. Do not have a Social Security number or anything closely matching what I am being asked to provide. I was never a USA resident, and never paid taxes there. So ... should I close my account and go foreign? ... should I carry on with what I have and hope (it's doubtful, anyway) I do not hit US$20,000 .... main question, is my account even "legal" now? If I start an account in, say, Singapore, and I DO hit US$20,000 do I pay USA tax? If so, HOW! Thanks for any help - don't want to break laws, and do want to avoid inconvenience at the end of the (tax) year.
