My disabled daughter lives with me full time. She receives SSI income but no other income. Do I need to claim her SSI income when I file my taxes?

No, you are not required to report any of her income on your tax return. If you want to claim her as a dependent, you must make sure she is not providing more than half of her own support. Review all of the rules in the link below.

Who can I claim as my dependent?

Sometimes they do pay you rent when a child receives SSI. If that is true in your case here are the rules for reporting that income.

The not-for-profit rental income is reported as follows and can be found in IRS Publication 527.

Where to report.

Report your not-for-profit rental income on Schedule 1 (Form 1040), line 8. If you itemize your deductions, include your mortgage interest and mortgage insurance premiums (if you use the property as your main home or second home), real estate taxes, and casualty losses from your not-for-profit rental activity when figuring the amount you can deduct on Schedule A.
