Question

Shared Rent

Hello Community 

 

I am currently renting an apartment in NYC  that I share with a roommate. My  name  is the only name that is on the lease for the apartment. We currently split the expenses for the apartment. We split the rent equally, I pay the rent  to the rental corporation and my roommate pays me their portion.  Is there any tax forms that I have to file since I am the only person on the lease ? I am not making any profit from the rent payment that I receive from them.

 

Regards

    No you will not report your roommates half of the rent as income.
