Investors & landlords

@eltinian I think if you provide some additional details they will see what your question is:

  • Your father owned the property up to a certain date
  • You were gifted the property on a certain date
  • Provide @Carl with the date the property was gifted to you
  • They should then understand that your father receives some depreciation up to the date of the gift and then you receive the depreciation post gift.  Since this didn't occur on 1/1/2021 each return only gets part of the year depreciation. 
  • Your question is how to split the depreciation
  • Having said all of that, you will need to complete your father's portion of depreciation up to the date of the gift in order to input the correct accumulated depreciation.
  • I am not certain that TT will be able to correctly handle the post gift part year depreciation.
  • Hopefully one of the other responders will be able to advise on that.
