Guest guest Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Good Afternoon Sheri and , I am wondering if either of you could answer a question I have regarding the 1099 Tax Form. Why doesn't Social Security issue a 1099-Misc Form (for other income or rent) to those of us parents charging our disabled adults rent? Thanks for your help Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Lori, 1099's are issued by businesses. Social Security would not issue them. SSA is not paying you rent, so they would not be issuing it. 1099-Misc for rent would have to be issued by a business to someone (person or business) they are paying rent to. > > Good Afternoon Sheri and , > > I am wondering if either of you could answer a question I have regarding the 1099 Tax Form. > > Why doesn't Social Security issue a 1099-Misc Form (for other income or rent) to those of us parents charging our disabled adults rent? > > Thanks for your help > Lori > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 is correct. For example if your child received a Section 8 voucher and each month HUD sends you a check for rent, then you would receive a 1099 for the total rent rec'd. When you pay yourself rent from SSI funds, you are simply using part of your child's SSI to reimburse yourself for fair share of household expenses so it isn't considered rental income 'per se', merely shared living expenses. I was out of town and didn't have time to respond to an earlier email where someone asked about paying for summer camp. While camp is an allowable expense, if your child spends all of their SSI check on camp and doesn't save enough to contribute to household expenses, s/he will not get the full SSI check. So pay rent or fair share expense first and then use whatever is left for goods and services that benefit the SSI recipient. You can supplement the cost of camp out of your own pocket but if you supplement total food and shelter expenses, this will be deemed as 'inkind support' and result in a 1/3rd loss of SSI. So instead of receiving $674, your child will only receive $450 per month. The rationale being if your child is receiving inkind support, s/he does not need the full check because they are getting 'free' or subsidized housing from the parent or other relative. Terrie Varnet From: cmfinato <cmfinato@...> Subject: Re: Sheri or / re: 1099 for Rent IPADDUnite Date: Monday, April 11, 2011, 7:13 PM  Lori, 1099's are issued by businesses.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Food Stamps (now known as SNAP) looks at HOUSEHOLD income. If your adult child on SSI eats, cooks and shops separately, he can apply for SSI.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 Thank you Terri for the answer on summer camp. I was planning on reimbursing myself a little each month (after I pay myself fair share expenses) so use of the other $274 each month until I reach the $1125 total for the summer camp tuition.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 I've been setting aside $50/month in a savings account that is transferred directly from 's SSI account to help offset the payment for summer camp. There really isn't much left after he pays me fair share, his phone, and the YMCA fee each month. H. Re: Sheri or / re: 1099 for Rent Thank you Terri for the answer on summer camp.
