Home Sale Worksheet Not Carrying to Schedule D

Issue

After entering the information for a home sale on the Home Sale Worksheet, no information carries to the Schedule D. 

Cause

The sale of a main home is reported on Form 8949 and Schedule D if the gain cannot all be excluded or if Form 1099-S is received. If there is no unexcluded gain and 1099-S was not received, the sale does not have to be reported and nothing will carry to Schedule D. 

Resolution

How to force the home sale to Schedule D by marking the 1099-S received box:

1. Open the tax return.
2. Double click Home Sale on the attached forms list.
3. Check the 1099S Received box. 
   
4. The information should now carry to Form 8949 and Schedule D.
