What triggered it?

Not sure. I've had a lot of verification issues recently, though. But outside of that my usual load send and withdraw activity.

My guess?

I bought a card in Chicago and loaded it there, and my activity is usually NY-based.

The questions in the affidavit are something along the lines of"

"Where did you get the money?"

"What was the money used for?"

The recipient has not been limited.

Weird, I also got a verification yesterday for the first time. But could be because when I loaded, I was in a different location than where I usually am.

Do you straight up always withdraw the money, or use debit card for purchases?

Never straight up withdraw. Always send to a two or three diff accounts which sometimes have a use but other times simply withdraw.

In the past people have said that transferring to others is a trigger.

How safe is this method? I'm reading a lot of reports on other websites that people get shut down left and right and can't withdraw the money from their PayPal accounts; but it seems like everyone here is doing great. Anything I need to be careful of except for funding account and transferring funds to someone else to cash out?

Go slowly. Typically going from $0 every month to $4,000 raises red flags.

Do I definitely need to get the special business account with them? If so can I get it as a sole proprietor (like you would fill out for any regular biz card application)? Thanks!

No need. Much simpler application.
