If you are claiming a Casualty Loss for your whole house, did you report the FMV Before the Casualty as 320K?

What amount did you use for FMV After the Casualty?

I entered fmv 294 before disaster and 320 fmv after disaster. I wasn't the whole house just a part of foundation and cracks in walls galore. I appreciate any advice you can give.

Thank you!
