If you are receiving Social Security retirement benefits, you do not report rental income unless you are a real estate agent and have many rentals as a business.

You only report wages from employment and net self-employment income.

Being a landlord IS being self-employed. That lady does not know what she is talking about Report Abuse
You must report ALL income. It does not matter if you get SS or not, you still must report it. If you do not then you could get in big trouble with the IRS & SS!

You cannot skirt around the rules. If you are legitimately make more than $14,000 then you need to bite the bullet and lose your benefits. They make these rules for a reason.
Your rent is income, you can not just report part, that would be fraud.

If you are over the limit you are simply over the limit and do not qualify.

You do not want to mess with them by committing fraud to obtain benefits you are not entitled to.
