    Hello

    Just a quick one (I think). I know Adsense only cares about tax if you are in the USA, but what do you do about it if you are in the UK?

    Obviously it must be taxable, but do you claim it and what do you do if you don't have your own business and are an individual.

    I have earned $20 in 3 weeks now and its starting to pick up better :D

    I don't think anyone should really worry about taxes until it becomes a substantial amount.

    like $1000+/year.

    IRS usually only goes after the big fish...IE people who owe thousands in taxes.

    Every state has different tax rules.
    The only good advice I can give you is to get an appointment with a professional accountant.
    Describe your exact situation to him and let him guide you.

    This is not about the 20$ dollars you have earned.
    It is the way you earned it that makes the whole difference.

    if you are in UK, you also have to declare your taxes.
