So, I'm waiting and I'm asking what the status is and not getting any response from anyone.

Make sure you get a signed w9 with a social security number if it’s over $600.

They said it's been status quo for years, there was a small hiccup when it was introduced but quickly went to normal.Can't say I can predict the future but I agree with @Russell Brazils

Or do I have to have REPs status for this side business to affect my W2 income in any way?

I’m not much for social media, so I would not have thought about that.

If the conversation is substantial, add them on social media, collect their name, email & phone number and share yours as well. 

The reality ended up being it was a fad market, people went there because social distancing was easy and it was a new place to explore. 

As I venture into transforming a historic school into a daycare and cultural hub, I've come to appreciate the crucial role of non-profits and endowments in driving both social change and economic growth.Behind every successful non-profit lies a strategic investment framework.

This is why it's important to just keep it to their address, don't get things mixed up, have the police going by to give the tenant status updates, because it could cause the calls to be charged to your property. 

I would say Lewiston is desperately trying to crawl out of Class C status, but it'll take some more years.
