Yes, it is correct that if you live in your main home for 24 months of the five years preceding the date of sale you will be entitled to the exclusion. Also you should be a resident of that state for the same period. This should be a consideration when determining residency/nonresidency status. It would eliminate the question of whether you lived in the home for the required period.
