Deductions & credits

There is no option for reinvesting in a new home (principal residence); that particular requirement was eliminated years ago.

 

Currently,  if you owned and used your home as your main home for a period aggregating at least two years out of the five years prior to its date of sale, you may qualify to exclude up to $250,000 of gain from the sale (up to $500,000 if you file a joint return with your spouse).

TurboTax will guide you through the reporting process in the Sale of Home section.
