@J318 We are all hosts here but most taxes operate on a similar system as to whose income ,and therefore taxable, money is. If you work in a shop and are paid a wage then your taxable money is your wage ,you are not taxed on the shops income. Same , if the money paid by guests is going into someone elses bank directly and the 'supposed host' or caretaker or employee does all the work but recieves a wage for that work then they are not liable for the income.It would be wise in the case of a husband and wife team to have money payable, from Airbnb guests , go into the persons account who generally earns the least , but your lovely down town tax agent will tell you all about it . Make an appointment , with the local tax agent as this is neither Airbnb CS or the tax advice line The person receiving the wage is the co host. The person recieving the Airbnb money into an account is the host. ... H
