What is the name of your state? California
A woman I know is renting rooms out into her Section 8 subsidized home. Now I know that is fraud, but she is funnelling the money through her son's bank account. Renters either make checks out to her son, or directly to the landlord (also fraud). The son does not report this "income" on his taxes, but gives her the credit card and she uses it to buy stuff for her family under his name.
I plan on reporting her and her landlord to section 8, but is this "income" her son receives but doesn't claim considered fraud to the Internal Revenue Service?
