I just purchased a house to live in family members and they are going to eventually pay rent to share expenses.  Do I have to claim that as income?  They are my care givers as well

    Family cost sharing does not get entered on a tax return.   You say they will be paying "rent"-----provide details.   Are they signing some sort of rental agreement or lease?  Or just helping with expenses within the family?  And....explain "they are my care givers..."----are they being paid to take care of you----or, again, just helping out within the family?
