Firstly, GTA Online account migration is not possible from console to PC or the other way around. Only PC players can migrate their profile from GTA 5 Legacy to the Enhanced Edition.
The support article also states that any banned or suspended accounts, or even those having "illegitimate or insufficient progress," might also not be eligible for migration.

For those wondering, using mods or exploiting money/duplication glitches are some factors that can get a Grand Theft Auto Online account suspended or banned. So, if that is the case with your account, it may be the reason why you cannot migrate your profile to GTA 5 Enhanced PC.
