Investors & landlords

If you rent for less than 15 days, the income is not taxable. But you still need to enter the form because the IRS also has a copy.

Enter the amount in the Less Common Income section, Miscellaneous Income  and then click Other Reportable Income. Type '14 day rent rule' as a description and enter the amount.

Then repeat the steps above and enter the amount as a negative number. You have now reported the 1099-MISC form with a zero dollar amount effectively.

Delete the Schedule E form from the Forms Mode if you have no other rentals.
