Where do I claim income on Airbnb income for property that I do not own?

I received Airbnb rental income but it is not on property that I own.

If you don't own (rent) a property and you've received rental income - tell TurboTax you do own it and that you're an active participant. Just leave depreciation and mortgage expense blank (you don't own it and won't depreciate the property).

You can list your rent as an expense, but only for months the unit was available for rent (pro-rated if you still lived in any part of it).
