YouTube to Deduct Taxes from June 2021

Recently, the company sent an email to YouTube creators across the globe to submit their tax details to Google AdSense.

As per the official statement on the company’s support page, “If any tax deductions apply, Google will withhold taxes on YouTube earnings from viewers in the US from ad views, YouTube Premium, Super Chat, Super Stickers, and Channel Memberships”.
