I have a Retail store (LLC) on my property that I charge rent to for the building and then claim the rent on my personal taxes under Schedule E. Is that considered self-rental subject to recharacterization rules? And if I have a profit on that rental is that considered non passive income?

Do you own the entity that pays the rent? If so, what kind of entity is it? Sole proprietorship? single member LLC? multi-member LLC? Partnership? S-Corp? C-Corp? Something else maybe?

Is "my property" your personal residence? Or is it commercial property that you own?

Basically, all income from all sources reported on SCH E is passive income. Period. But depending on your specific and explicit situation, SCH E may not be the right place to report the income.

Do you own the entity that pays the rent? YES I OWN AND IT IS ON MY PROPERTY - I HAVE A RETAIL STORE IN THE BUILDING - SINGLE MEMBER LLC.

If so, what kind of entity is it? Sole proprietorship? single member LLC? multi-member LLC? Partnership? S-Corp? C-Corp? Something else maybe? - SINGLE MEMBER LLC - SOON TO BE PARTNERSHIP

Is "my property" your personal residence? Or is it commercial property that you own? IT IS A BUILDING ON MY PERSONAL PROPERTY THAT I HAVE HAD A BUSINESS ON FOR 10 YEARS.

I WAS READING THAT IT IS UNDER SCHEDULE E BUT IT IS CONSIDERED SELF-RENTAL AND SUBJECT TO RECHARACTERIZATION RULES?
