Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Instead of contacting the IRS for a resolution to your issue, try contacting the Taxpayer Advocate instead.  They should be able to give you the best advice about how to get the situation cleared up so that you will not continue to have this problem going forward.

Or, as another alternative, you can amend your 2019 return as soon as possible to include Form 5405 stating that you no longer have the home and it was sold due to foreclosure.  Then amend your 2020 and 2021 returns as well to remove Form 5405.  When you have these completed, mail them all in the same package with your 2022 tax return and a letter of explanation telling the IRS about your situation.
