Military Capital Gains Extension

Greetings!

I’m an active duty military member who bought a house in San Antonio in 2008.  We lived in it until 2012 when we got orders to Florida but kept it as a rental.  Fast forward to 2019 – we actually got orders back to San Antonio and bought another house. There was a tenant in the rental, and they moved out in August 2020.  We then sold it in November.  What does this mean for my capital gains? As a military member, would I still qualify for the ten year extension even though I moved back to San Antonio?  Whatever the answer might be, do the TurboTax algorithms account for this when I file?

Thank you!

Eric
