Investors & landlords

i'm not actively managing it as tenant don't like to be bothered.  the rental is rented it on an annually basis, so its not use for AirBnB or anything like that.  

 

i do recall turbotax asked if i am actively involved or not and their definition was that if i am a decision maker or something, then that would be active?  can't recall exactly.  not sure if by that selection it changes my rental to be earned income instead of passive?
