Hello!

 

Paypal never sent me a 1099-K form for my earnings in 2016. I have filed an amendment to add the money I earned on paypal in 2016 but I don't have Paypal's Tax ID # to put in the Payer's section of the 1099 form to file. I need it asap so I can finish this form. Can anyone advise?

You can't make changes to a 1099-K.  If you need an amended 1099-K then you need to get it from PayPal.

What really matters is your own accounting records; they must be accurate.

yOU MAY BE ABLE TO REPRINT IT IN YOUR PAYPAL ACCOUNT,SEE IF IT IS UNDER REPORT SECTION.

But if you dont make 20k and 200 transactions,you dont get one.

You dont need it to file return,IRS gets a copy at the same time you get one.
