Trying to send 17 year old money with Apple Pay and it won’t work . It used to work then one it stopped it keeps reading pending

I would send my 17 year old son money through Apple Pay on I message with no problem . Now all of a sudden it doesn’t process it says pending and it needed his social security number and he needs to be 18. How is this possible all of a sudden . It doesn’t make any sense. What do I do ?
