A loss for the sale of a second home is not deductible and therefore does not have to be reported.  However, if you have a 1099-S, it should be reported.  Also, if it was an investment or business property you may be able to utilize the loss.  See Capital gains, losses, and sale of home

If you've entered an amount from any of the boxes on the slips listed here, you have what the CRA considers to be self-employment or business income: T4 slip: box 81, 82 or 83 T4A slip: box 20 or 48 T4A slip: box 28 and you answered Yes to the question Does the income declared in Box 028 consist of fees collected for services you provided? in TurboTax Online T3 slip: box 24 (foreign business income) If you have an amount in any of these boxes, TurboTax will ask additional questions to report the income as self-employment/business income. You only need to answer basic information, such as business name and address (can be your own), industry code, and fiscal period (Jan 01 to December 31).    If you are still not able to resolve this issue, please contact our phone support team for more assistance.     

TurboTax asks if you paid for health insurance while "self-employed" to determine your eligibility for the self-employed health insurance deduction. Even if your status is retired, if you had any period during the year where you were considered self-employed, this question applies. Self-employed health insurance premiums may be deductible on your tax return if you showed self-employment income. This helps TurboTax accurately calculate your deductions. If you were fully retired with no self-employment income, you can answer "No." If you had any self-employment even briefly, TurboTax needs this info to optimize your return.

Thank you for the explanation. I have some clarifying questions if you don't mind. Also, to provide additional background, the child has no other income outside this 1099-B.   The 1099-B in question has both the custodian's and the child's name on it. Does this mean it could be filed on the custodian's tax return? Assuming this is not the case, then to clarify, are the box 1d Net proceeds considered the unearned income amount that is compared to the $2,700 unearned income limit for filing? Box 1d in summation of all transactions exceeds the limit in our situation. Given the box 1e Cost or other basis amount exceeds box 1d in aggregation, and is reported as a loss on the 1099-B (which is not reported to the IRS, it footnotes), can we expect there to be no income tax owed by the child sourced in this 1099-B?   Somewhat related, we owned this UTMA for a portion of 2025 before the liquidation and re-investment. We didn't receive a 1099-DIV on the UTMA like we did in 2024 and other years past. Should we have received one or are there conditions for which it is not required?   [PII removed]
