This should be clear and obvious, but stranger things have happened.</P> Sat, 19 Aug 2023 14:44:49 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-credits-deductions/discussion/re-if-my-daughter-lives-with-me-and-pays-part-of-my-home-mortgage-do-i-need-to-report-the-payments/01/3083959#M296091 Anonymous_ 2023-08-19T14:44:49Z
