I have a unique situation. My client had to move her disabled sister in with her to take care of her.
My client of means, is supporting her sister and is spending a lot of money to do this. For her sister to qualify for Social Security, sister had to contribute to the household income, so she pays $500 a month "rent" to my client.
My client still pays over 50% of her sister's living expenses. She pays all the doctor bills, dental bills, clothing, outings, takes her to all of her appts, etc.
How do I handle this?
The rental income will be "other income" and no Sch E is required, right?
Sister is dependent of Tax Payer.
Am I right? I believe this is a simple situation, and I am not looking to make something bigger of this than I must!
Thanks~~
