I sold my home after 18 months so I did not meet the 2 year rule for exclusion of capital gains. As a result the title company sent me a 1099S.  I meet the requirement's for an exception because my job transferred me making my commute more then 50 miles further. My question is how do I enter this in Turbo Tax ??

You will be asked in the sale of home section if you have any type of exception since you did not live in or own the home for at least two years in the five year period on the date of sale.
