Can you please tell me if there is a certain sequence of forms & steps to take in claiming the exclusion for sale of personal residence? Can you also tell me what forms to complete, in what order? I mean do I do the Sch D first, Form 4797 2nd, etc. Thank you!

Complete the HomeSale Worksheet, then on the Rental Asset Entry Worksheet, in the Disposal area, you enter the date it was sold then you'd link to the HomeSale Worksheet (theres a button for this)...dont forget to mark Box H on the Sch E worksheet that its a taxable transaction.
