Deductions & credits

You should have received a 1099-S which reports your sale. Even if you do not receive the form, the steps will be the same. You can enter this by selecting the following:

  • Income
  • Show more next to Less Common Income
  • Start next to Sale of home

 

As you walk through the questions you will be asked a few questions to see if you qualify for the Home Sale Exclusion.  Your gains, up to $250,000, may be excluded from income if you lived there for 2 out of the last 5 years.
