Investors & landlords
Yes, provided you "attempted" to rent it out in 2020. If you did not at least "attempt" to rent it out in 2020, you might still be able to claim it as rental property "if" you have a valid reason for not renting it out. For example, if the property was not rented because it was undergoing renovation.
Otherwise, you will need to convert it to personal use. Let me forewarn you on something here. One of the screens has a selection on it for "I did not rent or attempt to rent this property in 2020" Whatever you do, do not select that checkbox. If you do, then you will be "FORCED" to delete the SCH E and you will lose all of your depreciation history and carry over losses PERMANENTLY.
So if you have a concern out your specific situation of weather you should convert or not, give me a bit more details as to "why" you didn't rent or attempt to rent it out in 2020, and I"ll do my best to help out here.
