I am an international student on F1 visa, I just got a 1099k form from Paypal because I sell some clothes on Ebay, and I just used Turbotax to file my tax. Is it ok?

First, you need to report that 1099K on your return. So if you didn't, you should amend your return.

You were a resident alien in 2017, so using Turbotax is okay. A social security number is not linked to your job, it's a personal number given to you for life, so you would use that number for any tax returns you might file.
