Where do I enter the data for selling mineral rights?

It depends. If you are not in the business of selling mineral rights and simply sold your own rights you can use the investment income instructions below. It would be unusual for you to have a cost basis if the mineral rights are on the land purchased with your home.

 

To enter your sale in TurboTax, follow these steps. 

  1. Open or continue your return.
  2. Navigate to the investment sales section:
    • TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to investment sales. If using this application, make sure it is open
    • TurboTax Desktop: Search for investment sales and then select the Jump to link.
      • Or Personal Tab > Continue > I'll choose what I work on > Scroll to Investment Income > Select Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other
  3. Answer Yes to the question Did you sell any of these investments in 2024? 
    • If you land on  the Investment sales summary or Your investments and savings screen, select Add More Sales or Add investments.
    • Click this link for more information. Where do I enter Investment Sales?
