Does Turbo Tax have the form 709 to help me report to the IRS the reduced price difference when I sold a house to my grandson?

There is a federal program that allows parents & grand parents to sell a property to their child / grand child for a reduced price and report the sale and price reduction on a form 709.

No.

 

Gifts given to family members, friends or other individuals are not deductible.   Gifts received are not taxable to the person who received the gift, and are not entered on a tax return.

 

If your gift exceeds the yearly limit ($18,000 per individual)  imposed by the gift tax rules, then you will need to complete a Form 709 gift tax form and send it to the IRS, although it is very unlikely that you will owe any tax.

 

TurboTax does not support Form 709.  It is not an income tax form and would not be included as part of an income tax return.

 

Here is a link to the form:
