They told me to report taxes through paypal,

I suspect that whoever "they" is was not very clear, or you misunderstood. Under no circumstances and with no exception will you "report" anything to, through, under, over, etc. through paypal. More than likely, you were informed that you will need to log into your paypal account to download any applicable tax reporting documents such as the 1099-K, 1099-MISC or something else.

If paypal will be posting any such documents to your account for tax purposes, that won't happen until sometime "AFTER" the last day of the 2019 tax year. If applicable, any tax reporting documents that paypal may be required to issue will be done by the last day of Jan 2020 at the absolute latest. (It's the law)
