If I pay the rent for my elderly parents, is it income for them?

My parents can't afford to pay rent. They will use their ssi income to pay for some of their rent. I would pay the remaining (possibly split with a sibling). Will this be income for them on their taxes (and state welfare applications)?

 

What if I was a cosigner on the apt lease? And what if not?

 

Thank you.
