@Kimberly718 Yes, I'm familiar with the image. Remitted "on your behalf" does not mean that it's submitted to the tax authority as an individual amount in your name. Whether you view it as idiotic or not, lump sum payment is what they do, in Oregon and Washington, at least. When our CPA files our lodging tax returns, she reports our gross revenue and credits the taxes they remit as "collected by facilitator". Airbnb remits Oregon state lodging tax, but not our county tax; and they remit Washington state lodging tax, but not a (different) state sales tax, and not our county tax. It was impossible to figure any of this out from Airbnb itself.
Of course you can just assume Airbnb pocketed the money and pay up. Personally, I'd pursue it with a knowledgable CPA before reaching that conclusion.
