workamping, taxes, and social security
To those that workamp for a free rv site is there a dollar amount reported for tax purposes and to Social Security. Does one get a W2 at the end of the year? Is it considered taxable income?

It varies from one place to another. Most places living on site is a condition of employment and therefore not taxable. Other places have been audited by the IRS and found in violation of the rules so the sites are now treated as taxable income. Can't remember the name right now but I think there's a big outfit in AZ where all sites are taxable now.
Cal-am parks, in AZ, all send w-2s (or 1099 -I can't remember which) to all their workampers. Have done so for the last 2-3 years after being audited.
