Help with Sched C of form 709 line 3.

I have no idea what to put down for the 'Restored Exclusion' on line 3. The instruction useless.

That would only apply if you have a deceased spouse and their exclusion was transferred to you.

 

It is the Deceased Spouse's Unused Exclusion if that was elected by the executor of the spouse's estate.

I have no Deceased Spouse. So is the whole form Not Applicable and I don't put any numbers on the form.

I'm pulling my hair out on this!
