My family's paypal has no relatives or friends to pay, so my 1099K is wrong

[hi-pan]

Dear administrator, my family members are all in China, so they can only pay me through paypal. However, it is a pity that Chinese paypal cannot use relatives and friends to pay, and Chinese paypal only supports commercial payment.
My family can only use commercial payment every time they send me remittances, but this will lead to my tax increase, because this is not a commercial behavior, so paypal will increase my tax by 1099K. I consulted the IRS, and the IRS asked me to contact the organization that issued 1099K for modification. May I ask what should I do? Can I ask my family in China to pay for me?

When paypal gives me the 1099K form, do I have the right to change it before submitting it to IRS?
