1. Persons subject to US income tax

I am an Airbnb host. Am I subject to income tax in the U.S.?

You are subject to U

.S. income tax if you have U.S.-source income. Generally, income derived from U.S.

assets, such as rental properties located in the U.S., is U.S. -source income and subject to U.S. income

tax.

Domestic rental income (i.e. rental income from a

property located inside the U.S.) is taxable in the U.S. regardless of where the person in receipt of that income resides. For example, an individual living outside the U.S. who is in receipt of rental income from a U.S. property is still subject to tax in the United

States.
