Hello,
Not too sure where to find an answer to my question. We purchased a cabin home in CA in 2019. When everything was shut down during covid we stayed in our cabin for a little over 2 years (2020-2022). We would come up and check on our other home every other weekend to get mail and make sure everything was ok. My question is I don't know how to prove we lived in the home. All of our mail was routed to the other home and we moved all bills to online. I'm asking because we sold our cabin in Aug of 2023 and had a gain on the sale. The gain is approx. $80k. I don't know how to exclude the gain under IRS regulation 121 if I didn't change my address on tax returns, drivers license or voting. Is there anything I can do?
