What is your 1099-S for? Sale of second home, rental property, etc?

You may get a 1099-S if you sold timber, real estate (including land), permanent structures, or stock in a co-op.

You can follow the steps here below to help you enter that 1099-S for sale of land. It will have you search for sold second home but you will see the option to choose land on the 3rd page. Just follow each step exactly. 

NOTE: See screenshots below for help navigating.

Yes, If the 1099-S was for the sale of your main home, it’s reported under Less Common Income in the Wages & Income section. Here's how to enter the form:

  1. Open or continue your return
  2. Type sale of a home in the Search box
  3. Select the Jump to link in the search results
  4. Follow the interview to enter the info from your 1099-S

Profits of up to $250,000 ($500,000 on a joint return) on the sale of your home may not be taxable if it was your primary residence for two of the last five years. We’ll ask you some questions about the sale of your home to see if you qualify.
