I've been preparing my tax return for the past few days. Everything looked in order and ready to file. But today when I did a final review, TurboTax is telling me I have to upgrade to Premier because I have capital gains, which I don't. I went though everything again, on the sale of our house last year, it says we don’t have to pay income tax on the sale, because it's under the $500k for filing jointly, and we lived in it for over 24 months. But then on the next screen it says I have to upgrade to Permier because I owe taxes on the sale of our home. Is this a bug or am I missing something?
Sale of personal home which is subject to the exclusion of gain is still reported on IRS form 8949 Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets and Schedule D Capital Gains and Losses.
