@Terraitup while agreeing with @Anonymous_ and @rjs on what you cannot do ( and indeed answers your question ), all is not lost. The old law was replaced with I would think a more beneficial one .
Now when you sell your main residence -- 1. if you ( at least one of you in case of filing joint filer ) have owned this property for two years; 2. you ( both of you in case of joint filers ) have used this property as your main residence/ home for a total of 730 days in the last 5 years ( from the date of sale ) --- you can exclude ( from federal taxes ) gains of up to 250,000 ( 500,000 for joint filers ) . You are allowed to have this exclusion once every two years ( + one day ).
Once you tell TurboTax that you have sold your main residence, it should walk you through the process and make this exclusion available.
Is there more I can do for you ?
