The fire erupted around 6:30 a.m. at 172-27th Ave. in Flushing, where twelve units and 60 firefighters responded to fight the flames.
Investigators are looking into whether the pair had been squatting in the detached structure, as heavy clutter in the garage raised concerns.
The bodies of a man and woman were found in the garage, and they have yet to be identified.
The cause of the fire is under investigation by the fire marshal, as it wasn't immediately known.
