I moved out of my former primary residence 3 years ago when I purchased a new primary residence. I rented the former primary residence for 2.5 years and then sold it. I qualify for the exclusion of Gain since I lived in my former primary residence for more than 2 of the last 5 years. I entered this transaction as a Sale of a Home (gain or loss). Under my rental property, I entered the sale/disposition date. Turbo Tax is properly excluding the Capital Gain and the rental property is properly being depreciated up to the sale date but I cannot find the depreciation recapture in any of the calculation or forms. Do I need to do anything in Turbo Tax to trigger the calculation or do I have to do this manually in a form? I have been using Turbo tax for a while so all my depreciation information should be in Turbo tax. Either way, I would appreciate your guidance on how to get Turbo Tax to calculate it.

You don't report this at all as Sale of Home. You simply report the sale in the rental interview. You'll be asked if the house was ever a primary residence there.
