My parents live in Utah. I live in Colorado. They bought a house for my sister to live in (in Utah) and a receive a rent allowance from Carbon County, UT. My father died a few years ago and my mother was concerned that if she died, the rent assistance would be lost. She asked the county to make a change send the money to me which they did. I auto deposit the money in a savings account from which the mortgage and upkeep of the house are paid. I don't own the house so I cannot deduct any expenses from income I now receive from the County reported on a 1099 misc as rental income. How can I reassign this rental income back to my mother?
