Client out of the country studying for master degree.  Renting condo to friend for the mortgage amount, temporarily.  Is the rental income reportable?  If so, where do I report it?  Can expenses be claimed? If so, where?  

Thank you for your assistance.

    Is that rental amount at Fair Market Value?

    Yes.

    Depends on #1.

    Yes, rent being paid is FMV.

    "Renting condo to friend" <== meaningless for tax reporting

    "for the mortgage amount" <== meaningless; that's how they determined how much to charge. The Charge is what matters, not how they got there.

    "temporarily" <== meaningless, except they might still be subject to landlord provisions, need to worry about insurance, etc.

    Make sure to understand what matters and what doesn't.
