My estimated payment tool showed -$82,374. Does this mean I will owe that amount when I file my taxes? I sold a home last year, not sure I entered the info right.

No one can see what you entered in the estimating tool.  We have no way to know if you entered information correctly or not.  

 

Were you using TaxCaster?

As for selling a house:

 

SALE OF HOUSE

 

If your gain was more than  $250,000 filing Single, or more than $500,000 filing Married Filing Jointly the sale must be reported on your tax return.  Whether you re-invested the gain in to another house is irrelevant.  If you  have a Form 1099-S go to Federal>Wages and Income>Less Common Income>Sale of Home (gain or loss)

If you owned and lived in the home as your primary residence for at least 2 of the last 5 years on the date of the sale, you do not have to report the home sale if the gain is less than $250K filing Single, or less than $500K filing Married Filing Jointly (and you both owned and lived in the home for at least 2 years).

  • If you are using online TT, you need Premium software to report the 1099-S

 

 

NOTE:   If you have ever used the home as rental property or claimed a home office, you have more information to enter
