Form 1099-S is generally provided by a title company after the sale of real estate. If there was a property sale this year, contact the title company that you closed with to see if the filed a Form 1099-S. You can check with the IRS much later in the year (near the October extended deadline) after the 2017 wage and income transcripts are available.

Do I need to submit this 1099-S to the IRS. These were proceeds from the sale of my mother's home as an inheritance. The Escrow Company sent it to me.

You would get it from the realtor that you sold the house through. 

 

You can still report the sale of your home even without the 1099-S by doing the following:

 

If it was a home you lived in you would enter the sale by clicking on the following:

  • Federal
  • Income
  • Show more next to Less Common Income
  • Start next to sale of your main home
  • Then walk through and enter the amount your portion of the sale and expenses

 

If this was an investment property, you would enter it by clicking the following:

  • Federal
  • Income
  • Show More next to Investment Income
  • Start next to Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other (1099-B) 
  • Then walk through the questions and enter your share of the sale and expenses.
