On Individual screen 22 what's the difference between two methods of removing depreciation expense?

Ivy GSG

Hi community,

Client needs to convert a single-family rental property to primary residence for the year of 2022. The property was rented out in previous years so I need to delete depreciations for 2022. Client might want to re-rent the property in future years so we want to keep property information in Lacerte instead of deleting it completely. 

I found two methods to achieve this goal:

  1. On Individual screen 22 put -1 in Current depreciation/amortization to override prior year date
  2. Put 1= delete this year in Additional Information

So I wonder what's the difference between these two methods? Thank you very much!
