Deductions & credits
Thank you for your help. I suspect you are correct that my form 4797 was coming from incorrectly selecting that I sold the property in general property information, Do Any of These Situations Apply? However, my form 4797 persisted even after I went back and changed the disposition to personal use. When I tried to delete the form it auto-generated again.
I next switched from the "Property profile" section to the "assets / depreciation" section. I edited the asset representing depreciation for the property. At the question, "Did you stop using this asset in 2022?" I found that it ignored my answer. Whether I clicked yes or no, it proceeded as if I had sold the property.
I worked around this problem by going into the forms view and for the Schedule E Wks / Asset Wks, and I directly deleted all of the entries for lines 20-36. After this it seemed like the program started to work correctly.
I think this is a defect in the software that prevents form 4797 from being deleted once it is created.
