answered on May 20, 2023
The income from the rental would be unrelated business taxable income. The income is 1. from a trade or business; 2. regularly conducted; and 3. not substantially related to their exempt purpose.
A Form 990 would need to be filed and tax paid on the UBIT.

Hi!
I recently filed my taxes with a filing agency, and they submitted my taxes as a dual member LLC, but we are a sole member LLC.
Am I going to get automatically audited? How can I protect myself?

This sounds like a marital partnership.
There's no additional tax or penalty for filing as a partnership vs a Sole-proprietership. Assuming that the partnership return was filed timely.
