Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You'll need TurboTax Premier Online to report capital gains from the sale of your primary home. (You may also use TurboTax Self-Employed or the TurboTax CD/Download software.)


To enter your home sale in TurboTax:

  • Continue your return in TurboTax Online. (If your return isn't open, you'll need to sign in and click Take me to my return.)
  • Click the drop-down arrow next to Tax Tools (lower left side of your screen).
  • Select Tools.
  • In the pop-up window, select Topic Search.
  • In the I'm looking for: box, type sale of home.
  • In the results box, highlight sale of home, then click GO.
  • You'll land on Sale of Your Main Home. Follow the onscreen instructions. 

Note: If using the TurboTax CD/Download software, you'll use the Find function and the "Jump to" link (instead of "Tax Tools") to search for "sale of home".
