Anybody handled PayPal's 'Purpose of withdrawal'

    Purpose of withdrawal

    This new category has emerged in PayPal when I tried to extract some money to my local bank.
    If you click upon the question mark next to this field, it says that PayPal is supporting only sales and export transfers. Does this mean that other listed purposes like "Content and Journalism" will not be supported if I click on them?
    I mean I am a freelance writer so this should be my option but I am a bit afraid now.

    Please help.

    Who says that they have completely stopped? It was working perfectly fine few days back. Did you try this out?

    Thanks

    Yes,No payments are sent to Indians who initiated withdraws on 10th March and there after.

    As usual don't expect paypal to reply until next few weeks
