Did not receive a 1099-S and do not qualify for exemption

[packoflogan]

I sold my house after 1 year, 10 months of living in and owning it; was not married during any portion of that time, and therefore do not qualify for the capital gains exemption.

I have not received a 1099-S form at any point in the process, so should I still report my gains? 

What to report as gains is also a question I have, but first I would like to know if I should report them even if I did not receive a 1099-S.

Yes, you must report the sale of the home if you can't exclude all of your capital gain from income even if you didn't receive Form1099-S.

If you don't meet the Eligibility Test, you may still qualify for a partial exclusion of gain. You can meet the requirements for a partial exclusion if the main reason for your home sale was a change in workplace location, a health issue, or an unforeseeable event.

Are you sure you do not have a 1099-S form in the pile of paperwork sent home with you at the closing ?
