I sold my primary home in 2018. Where in Turbotax do I claim the repairs and home improvements?

You will add the cost of improvements to your primary residence to your cost basis.

Unfortunately, the IRS does not allow deduction for repair expenses.

Here is how to report the sale of your primary home:

In Income & Expenses

Scroll to Less Common Income, click show more

Click Sale of Home (gain or loss) and start

Check "yes" you sold your home

Home sale exclusion: Home Sale Exclusion
