Deductions & credits

Yes I was rented.  Without getting into legal detail, basically 2 unrelated owners (titled as 50/50 tenant in common, unmarried and mortgage in both name) started the short-term rental in 2009-2010.  Income/expense/debt was spitted 50/50, and both filed tax independently.  The other 1/2 owner has control of all the VRBO, PayPal and all the rental accounts.  I was locked out without receiving any rent/document.  Tax filing was overly extended.  Tax was later filed with the rental removed and continue that way till the final court force sell order in 2024.
