Investors & landlords

I’m not understanding your question. You don’t need to issue a Form 1099-MISC to your tenant. A Form 1099 is filed when you pay someone.

 

If you are receiving rent, you can report rental income on your tax form without a 1099-MISC.

 

  1. Type rentals in Search (magnifying glass) in the top right corner
  2. Select Jump to rentals
  3. On “Your 2022 rentals and royalties summary, select EDIT next to your property
  4. On “Here’s [your] rental property info, select Add income
  5. On “Select your type of income for [your property] choose Cash, checks and electronic payments (like Square or PayPal) and enter your rental income in USD
