Sold rental, TT says: delete rental bc I didn't rent house in 2017, but retain passive loss info. Where do I put passive loss info in TT when I'm doing "sale of home"?

Yeah, TurboTax doesn't handle it well.

The easiest work-around is to say it WAS rented (you may need to say it was rented for 15 days), and that it was sold.  It will have a spot asking for your passive loss carryover.  Just don't enter any income, expenses, or assets/depreciation.
