<prompt> Human: Hi, I will be living in Somerville, MA and had a question about writing off my rent on taxes. My landlord currently accepts payment through Venmo only. On my bank statement it just appears as purchase made on Venmo and gives no indication of what the purchase is. Will I have problems in the future if I try to claim rent on my taxes? The mass.gov site states that Only amounts paid specifically as rent are allowed so I am not sure where I stand.  <response>: Get a receipt from your landlord.
