Seattle area tax filings

[Mary6633]

Just wanting to connect with other hosts about the quarterly tax filings for Seattle.  Just wondering what income vs expenses issues there are.  Are cleaning fees considered income?  I was under the impression Airbnb took care of tax filings but got email saying I was delinquent.  I’m sure it’s a Seattle only issue.

Hi @Mary6633 , Since you posted a while ago, have you managed to find a few insights about tax filings for Seattle?

I have found a YouTube video that helped me understand how to file the quarterly excise tax form which I didn't expect to do.  It seems pretty simple. 

Here's the link!

That was the only thing I found.  I'm lead to believe that AirBnB is collecting the federal income taxes but I'll have to figure that out next year when I file my personal taxes.  If you know more, feel free to post!
