eBay Question

Squirt60 — Wed, 26 Oct 2022 19:24:56 GMT

I'm hoping someone can give me some advice please. If I want to open an eBay account to sell a few things, do I need to give them my Social Security Number? I know they will send you a 1099 if your sales exceed $600.00 but my sales would not be that much.

Thank you in advance for any input you can give me. 🙂

@Squirt60 Since the amount of your sales is subject to change very fast, I'm guessing its required of everyone.

Ebay uses managed payments and I think they require a ss number. I think you get a tax document even if you are under the $600.
