For a 0% interest loan to a family member do I just enter their name in “received from” or is there more info to be entered?

    If you made a loan to a family member at a rate below the Applicable Federal Rate (AFR), you have to report the differential interest income at the AFR and pay taxes on it. You have to calculate the interest differential and report it.

     

    Please read this TurboTax article for more information.

     

    The AFRs can be found in this IRS document.
