Rental Income for property you don't own

My father rents out a property that is owned free and clear under his trust (with only him as trustee).

 

In 2023 I think I should to divert 90% of the rental income to his daughter. Even though she's not a trustee, she is the one renting out the property and doing the activities. She won't get to take depreciation out as an expense... though maybe my father should take some percent of the income? He has done a few actions for the property.

 

The daughter will pay a little more in taxes but not much as the rental itself is barely profitable. Their living costs expenses are already intertwined so the destination of the income being changed doesn't cause any disagreement among the people.

edit: pulled out the EITC component after replies, as it complicates the question
