I have the same question. Why should we enter depreciation twice, though? What's the difference between the two? All of my depreciation was after 2014, and when I enter it in both places, it tells me I don't qualify for the Exclusion of Gain on the house, whereas if I enter it just in the Easy Guide section for calculating the adjusted basis of the house, it says I do qualify. In looking through the IRS instructions about the exclusion, I'm sure I do qualify for it. So why is TT asking for this amount twice and then disqualifying me?
