Not paid for item sold & Account restrictions
Summary: nedusmart needs help completing a verification process to receive payout for a camera sold on eBay. Being a non-U.S. person, they do not have an SSN or ITIN, which is required for verification. lady_madonna advises that if verification cannot be completed, eBay will eventually transfer the withheld funds to the treasurer of the state where they were registered at the time of the sale, allowing them to file a claim for the funds.
Hello, I need assistance completing verification so I can receive a payout from an item I recently sold.
I am a non-U.S. person. I was temporarily in the United States when I sold my personal 360-degree camera on eBay. The buyer has already paid and the funds are currently being held pending verification.
The verification page is asking me for an SSN or ITIN. I do not have an SSN or ITIN and I do not want to provide incorrect information.
My account is scheduled for restrictions by the 14th September, 2026 if I am unable to complete my verification requirements. What should I do
Thank you.
Austin
