I received a 1099K form from VRBO. We only rented our house 12 days this year. Do I still need to put that information on my tax forms? When I do it, lowers my refund and increases my income

    Yes, you will need to enter the 1099-K as the IRS will  be expecting it as part of your income.  However, after you enter the 1099-K, you will just back the income out since you rented the house only 12 days which is under the 14 day rental rule. 

     

    To enter the 1099 K and then back it out immediately take the following steps:

    1. Income
    2. 1099-K under Other Common Income
    3. Enter the information from the 1099-K
    4. Check the box that says, This amount in box 1a is too high or includes some personal transactions
    5. Enter the amount that shouldn't be included
