Add a valid Credit Card and/or bank account and upload scans of his DL/ID/Passport and proof of residence."
It's that EASY.
You have no ID? Since when? Where do you live, man? Somalia? lol
In any civilized country you'll need to have an ID card.
So, scan that ID card, scan a letter from your bank, can be a pdf taken from your internet banking as long as it holds your address, and upload the scans on their site, and add that bank account to Paypal.
And, redrobin, yes, it's that EASY. If he sends them the stuff, the ID verification probably will be enough to take out the limitation of the paypal account, and that takes 24hrs or less. The bank account verification is usually done in 3 or 4 business days, sometimes less.
