Should I issue a 1099 Misc to someone I paid a monthly fee to that I stayed with in an (illegal) crash pad -- basically subletting with no contract? The lessor has a lot of people living with her on and off, making money over and above the rent she pays to the apartment building management, who apparently doesn't know what she's doing. I've ran into problems with her accepting my payment since my financial institution won't use Zelle anymore, which is all she will take. She refused Apple cash a couple weeks ago, so I moved out. Does she report this as income since she is earning a profit off of people, and thus should do a 1099? Thanks!
