    2022 Principal Residence Exclusion: • Form 1099-S on Form 10...
    Form 1099-S is filed by the closing agent to report the gross sales proceeds from the sale or disposition of real property by the seller.
    The seller receives a copy of Form 1099-S, and the IRS gets a copy as well. It is important for the seller to report the transaction on their Form 1040 because Form 1099-S does not report the cost basis in the home. So, the IRS has no idea whether the taxpayer realized a gain or loss on the sale.

    Thanks, but a couple of things. First, box D on 8949 should not be checked off since I am pretty sure basis was NOT reported to IRS. It should be box E that is checked off. Secondly, it would have been nice if you added an example of a gain on sale of a home. Lastly, where do you put the sales commission to subtract from your gross proceeds? I assume lump it into your cost basis?

    Hi,
    Nice video, but shouldn’t it be reported on form 8949, with box F checked showing long-term transaction quote not reported to you on form 1099B”.?
    So it is a 1099S, not 1099B.
    Thank you

    HI, Thanks for sharing the video, it was really helpful. The only question i have is my actual sale value is more than the gross proceeds shown on my 1099-S. Can you please tell me what value should i enter in turbotax as the sale value. Thank you in advance.

    • @JasonDKnott
      @JasonDKnott  2 роки тому +1

      If the gross sales proceeds from the disposition differ from what is reported on the Form 1099-S, then the Form 1099-S might be incorrect. I would contact the party that was responsible for closing the transaction and issuing the Form 1099-S. Make sure the amounts are accurate.

    My uncle died earlier this year and left me a parcel of raw/undeveloped land. It is being transferred into my name. I have a buyer who is going to purchase it and expect that to close in a few months. So I will both acquire and sell the land within the span of a few months, for $0 capital gain. In this scenario, will the closing attorney submit this same 1099-S form, and will I then fill out the same form shown in this video on my tax return with minor changes to match my scenario? Which box would I check since this is not long-term and is all happening within a year? Thank you.

    Your video is excellent. I am a Canadian citizen and just sold a personal use property in California at a small loss. 15% of the sale price was withheld as per FIRPTA. I now have a ITIN and a IRS "stamped" 8288A and a 1099-S. To file I will use 1040NR, Schedule D & 8949. Should any other forms be filed ? What documents should I attach to support/verify the cost basis and sale proceeds, I am reporting.

    Sold a vacation home, we are both retired living on our SS only. We will be getting a 1099-S. Soon! Do you have a video on what to do? Because we had to do repairs to sell which hurt our profit on the sale. We also used accident settlement money which was tax free paying off the loan 2 years early before the sale of the house. Any help would be welcomed thx 🙏

    I use turbo tax and input my primary residence sale, it’s less than the joint file of $250k permitted, but it shows I owe on my primary home gain. It’s L (long term) but I can seem to change it so the gains are not taxed.

    • @JasonDKnott
      @JasonDKnott  2 роки тому

      The tax software should ask a variety of questions to make sure you are eligible for the principle residence exclusion. If you are answering questions yes/no which determine you are not eligible for the exclusion, then the software will not allow the exclusion.

Or could it be that the proceeds are means to offset the cost basis of the main house when comes time to sell the main house at a future date.

    If multiple parties (siblings) with fractional interest in a non-residential property sell their respective shares to another sibling, do I list the proportional gross proceeds on each seller's 1099-S, or do I use the full sales price? If full price, where would the sellers indicate to the IRS that they only owned fractional shares? Thank you

    If selling real estate, with a reported 1099 S, you indicate to check box D on 8949 indicating basis was reported to the IRS. Is this correct ? the 1099s is the selling price being reported to the IRS not the "basis".

    • @JasonDKnott
      @JasonDKnott  2 роки тому +1

      The buyer and seller are normally not the ones to complete the 1099-S. The party responsible for filing Form 1099-S is the party responsible for closing the transaction, which is usually either party's attorney, title company, or escrow company. It is common to issue a Form 1099-S to each person in a jointly held property.

  • @nancym1040
    @nancym1040 Рік тому

    Do you have a video for when you have a capital gain on sale of main home, you qualify for the exclusion and how to adjust using that exclusion under column f and g? I think I’d report code H under column f and in column G I’d report the capital gain since it was under $250,000 for a single person. That would 0 out the total in column h (gain or loss). Is that correct? Thank you!

  • @jbamerican_usnavy
    @jbamerican_usnavy 2 роки тому

    On vacant lots do you check A,B or C after getting gross 1099-S from the title company? Do you put the total cost to buy and under sell under (d) of form 8949? Or do you put the cost to buy under (d) and the cost to sell under column (g) with code E under (f).????

    • @JasonDKnott
      @JasonDKnott  2 роки тому +1

      The Form 1099-S never reports the cost basis of the property, as there is no field available on the Form 1099-S to report cost basis. The Form 1099-S does not qualify as a Form 1099-B equivalent, so you generally report the transaction on Form 8949 and select either (C) or (F) depending upon the holding period.

    • @JasonDKnott
      @JasonDKnott  2 роки тому +1

      I would recommend filing an amended return for 2019 to report the sale of the property. As always, however, there are unique circumstances that could apply, so consult with a tax advisor to discuss your options.

    • @JasonDKnott
      @JasonDKnott  2 роки тому

      All documents should be considered, because you can generally include closing costs and other costs of sale as part of the taxpayers cost basis.

    So when we receive a 1099-S, we need to report on both Schedule D and Form 8949, correct? I sold my long term principle home, but Turbo only show up in schedule D. That's why I'm confused.

    • @maggiezhang9695
      @maggiezhang9695 2 роки тому

      Ohhhh, form 8949 will flow to Schedule D. Turbotax didn't show form 8949 but only schedule D. I thought they are completely two different form we need to enter. Am I right here?

    • @JasonDKnott
      @JasonDKnott  2 роки тому

      The 1099-S is filed by the broker or lawyer who closed the transaction, it is not filed by the buyer or seller in most cases. The sale of your home should be reported on Form 8949 as shown in the video. If you qualify for the principal residence exclusion, then you can exclude all or a portion of the gain.

    • @JasonDKnott
      @JasonDKnott  2 роки тому

      If a property is jointly owned by two persons, it is common for the title company to issue a separate Form 1099-S for 1/2 the purchase price to each spouse. You likely need to amend your 2017 return to report your 1/2 of the disposition. I would recommend consulting with a tax professional to further discuss your options, as it can get complicated.

My daughter lived in the home until Feb 2021 & I sold the house 5/2021 so do I fill out form 8949 & schedule D for capital gain? Should I receive a copy of 1099-S by Feb 15 from the closing co then I can file my taxes. Hope I’m headed in the right direction. Thanks

Then a couple months later I got the form from the title company. Nobody told me about this so I didn’t think I needed to do anything. Then last year one of those tax companies called me and said I owe 87,000 what do I do?
