Is there any way to do this? I just set up PayPal for my 2nd business but in order to confirm it wants my SSN#. That's tied to a different PayPal account and I get an error message when I try it.

I put in the business' EIN but no go. Any workarounds?

It sounds like you put in an TIN that's not tied to a business, but to your social.

Is that the case?

Not sure. I put in the tax id of the business (S-Corp): xx-xxxxxxx. Since I'm the president of the company it has to be tied into my social somehow, no?

My other (currently running PayPal account) is with an LLC and I used my SSN# which is also the business tax id (I know, I know... I should get a tax ID).
