Thanks a lot!

@Anca0 What kind of tax are you asking about?  Income tax or Occupancy tax?  Can you give more information?

[Anca0]

What sort of taxes or forms that need to be filled in once one is starting to host on Airbnb.. I would think income tax are the most pressing..
Thank you, Clare.

@Anca0 All you need to do is provide Airbnb with your SSN.  No other tax forms are necessary.  Here are some income tax articles that might be of assistance in your tax planning:
