Hi,
I am really stressed about my mums tax return. She inherited a property from her husband back in 2009. Since then, she might have been getting rent from the property but I'm not too sure...she is mentally ill so she's confused as well. So far from her accounts I can't see any regular rent being paid since then, but there are some strange cash deposits so there could have been rental money - theses vary from a few hundred pounds to maximum £700. What I do know is, that the house has been empty the past year and I have put some money into the house to renovate it for her and now I have found some tenants. I now need to fill out a tax return form for her but I am scared that she will get in trouble for not notifying the hmrc of previous possible rental income. If i fill the form and send it off, are the hmrc likely to ask her questions?
She doesn't work, so this is her only income and she gets a couple of grand from a private pension.
The main thing I would like to know is if anyone has had previous experience on declaring rental income randomly and if they were asked questions.
