Question

1099-s form

I received a 1099-S form from the sales of my last property. It is asking me for the purchase price - we owned the house for over 13 years and had refinanced in between. I assume when they ask for the original purchase price I list what we originally paid? If so, that is the same amount we sold for 13 years later so not sure why I was given a form. Also, they are asking for my expenses listed on the closing statement which I no longer have - what should I do?

yes, there are seeking what you paid for the house 13 years ago

the refinance that occured doesn't matter

is this a personal residence that you lived in all these years? if that is true, don't worry about the expenses listed on the closing statement - there will be no capital gains tax to pay in any event, since you infer there is less than $500,000 of gains over that 13 years.
