am I considered 'unemployed' if I only collect rent as income?

[semidevil 12]

2 questions:

The CPA who did my taxes, he knows i"m unemployed and am collecting rent as my primary source of income; but on the tax return, he put 'insurance' as my occupation (my prior occupation).

Is this what I should put on my i864?

If not...then, am I considered "unemployed"?

I initially put down 'landlord' as my occupation, but not sure if I'm considered 'employed' if just collect rent.

Occupation - real estate investor. Employer - self.

thanks. that makes sense. on the instructions, it says that self-employed needs to provide the schedule c/d/e of the tax return. I have that for this year.

For my previous years, I was also 'regularly' employed, in addition to being a landlord. since my day job makes more money, does that take precedence, or do I still need list myself as 'self-employed' and need to provide schedule c/d/e for previous years also?

Include all income from previous years.

Include all income from previous years.

even if I have a tax transcript that lists all income?

If you have a tax transcript, then that should be all you need. I'm assuming your employee income was more than enough without the rental income in the earlier years.

If you're now collecting rental income as your supporting income, you likely have more than enough assets to cover the requirements to.
