Do I need to file schedule D or other filing if I sold my home at a loss and owned for less than 2 years?

Only if you received a Form 1099-S for the sale would the sale have to be reported on a tax return (gain or loss)
If you did not receive a Form 1099-S and you have a loss on the personal residence it is not reported on a tax return.
If you received a Form 1099-S for the sale either with a gain or a loss, the sale has to be reported. You will need the online TurboTax Premier or Self-Employed edition to report the sale if you are using the online editions. Make sure that you indicate that you want the sale of the home reported on your tax return.
