Under these circumstances and in order to file the Form 982, we generally recommend using the CD/Download version of TurboTax Deluxe or a higher edition. I notice that you are currently using our TurboTax online product.

Form 982 (Reduction of Tax Attributes Due to Discharge of Indebtedness) reports the amount of cancelled debt to excluded from taxable income. We'll automatically generate Form 982 if your cancelled debt is due to:

Cancellation of qualified principal residence indebtedness, aka mortgage debt relief;
Debt cancelled in a Title 11 bankruptcy;
Debt cancelled during insolvency (the amount exceeding your assets);
Cancellation of qualified farm or real property indebtedness.

In addition, you should have a 1099-C to report the amount of cancelled debt.
