It depends on the type of imputed income. If it is imputed interest, enter it where all other interest payments go (schedule B). If it is imputed life insurance income from your employer, that should already be included in box 1 of your W-2 and you should enter it on line 7 of your W-2. You enter it wherever non-imputed income of the same nature would go.

What is imputed rent?

Imputed rent...or imputed anything for tax, means implied rather than specified....so for example...if your emplyer gives you a place to live as part of your employment...that is actually like him giving you an additional amount of salary (clearly you woul work for less if he pays your housing than if you need to pay it yourself...same with if he provides you say a car...that too is a form of payment/income even though the value of it isn't specified in your salary. In these cases, for tax purposes, the value you receive as income is "imputed" and determined (and must be reported by the employer or you) as income anyway. Another example is imputed interest- even if the agreement says no interest is charged on a loan, the one making the loan MUST report interest income as it is imputed in whatever the agreement was (the minimum rate is specified by law)...since no business would actually laon money without interest of some type, because there would be no business purpose in doing so.
