Question

Sold Rental Property, no place to enter 1099S

Filled out the TT info for rental property I sold, the numbers seem to line up properly. However, there is no place for me to enter my 1099-S for the gross proceeds, so that figure is left blank for Line 1A of the Form 4797 (which asks for the 1099-S gross proceeds amount.

 

Is that okay? Is it worth overriding it or will that confuse things for IRS?

 

Thanks,

Adam

    Thank you. Sorry I missed it on other posting. Still, why does Form 4797 ask for it in line 1a if wont get it? Very strange and inconsistent.  But the land and asset add up to the 1099s so going to assume the irs computers will be happy.

    You are right, line 1a should show the amount.  If the program does not enter that (or allow you to enter that), it seems like a defect in the program.
