Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@phperez98373 If you purchased the CD/download then any version of the desktop software has all of the forms and schedules you need. If for some reason you want to upgrade to a higher version of the software then you can do that by clicking the word "upgrade" in the tool bar at the top.
SALE OF HOUSE
If your gain was more than $250,000 filing Single, or more than $500,000 filing Married Filing Jointly the sale must be reported on your tax return. Whether you re-invested the gain in to another house is irrelevant. If you have a Form 1099-S go to Federal>Wages and Income>Less Common Income>Sale of Home (gain or loss)
If you owned and lived in the home as your primary residence for at least 2 of the last 5 years on the date of the sale, you do not have to report the home sale if the gain is less than $250K filing Single, or less than $500K filing Married Filing Jointly (and you both owned and lived in the home for at least 2 years).
