We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I sold my home in 2016. I received half of $1413.13. The other half went to my ex husband. Do I need to include this information on my return?

I did not receive a form 1099-S.

No.  You don't report home sales unless the gain was over $250,000 (single) or $500,000 (joint), and you lived in and owned it for 2 years.


If you lived there less than 2 years, enter your half here:

Wages & Income 

Scroll down to Less Common Income, then Show More

Select Start next to Sale of Home (gain or loss)

TurboTax will ask questions to determine if you even need to report it.
