| PayPal imposed draconian security blocks AFTER I sold my unit @curiousjim Never done your own taxes, eh? A w-4 is the form you fill out to tell your employer how much income taxes to withhold from your paycheck. Perhaps you meant w-2. that would be wrong too. a w-2 if for earned income, not sales. ... | |
