(Q.updated) I sublet my apartment that I don't own. My subletter paid rental company directly during the subleasing period. Does this count as *my* income?
I was out of the country for a while so I sublet my apartment for a few months. I sublet my apartment through the rental company that I rent from, (my subletter wrote up a subleasing agreement with my rental company, but under my contract) and my subletter arranged monthly rent payments with the rental company directly, so that I was not involved in the exchange of rental money between my subletter and the rental company. I am pretty sure I was still the main person on that rental contract, but the money exchange was solely between them. I did, however, collected two months' rent as security deposit for the duration of the sublease then returned it at the end.
However, I received my CRP from my landlord saying that I paid the full-year's worth of rent, even though I only paid x months of it (the other months were paid by my subletter).
Q1. Does the monthly payments my subletter made to the rental company for the other months still count as *my* income?
Q2. Is my CRP wrong? Should I ask my landlord to give me a fixed CRP with the correct amount I paid?
Thanks!
