For those not proficient in tax slang, :"Augusta rule" refers to the location of the Masters Golf Tournament, in Georgia, where many people move out during the week and rent their homes for less than 15 days, so it is nontaxable.  What your are saying is that you can't enter the income amount on Schedule E and the same amount as an expense on the "other" Line 19, with the description "280A(g) exception" (your post put a 9 in there instead of the open parenthesis).  Really?  I don't think the program audits your entries there.
