I tried to use H&R Block but experiencing issues when I tried to e-file. I second nelsona's opinion since I changed to TaxAct and never had an issue with them.

Thanks again nelsona. You’ve been so helpful. Yes, I filed the non-resident paperwork at the time of the sale for my half of the gain to the CRA.

Lived there from Jan 2012 to Jun 2015. In Jun 2015 I left for the USA. My spouse remained in the house until we sold in Feb 2017.

Thank you! If I meet the requirements to exclude the gain according to https://www.irs.gov/publications/p523#e ... nk10008937 then the fact that it was a Canadian property has no bearing right? I would still be exempt from tax on the gain?

How to Calculate Taxes Paid Amount for 1116

I have moved back to Canada in Sept 2017. I will be filing an FTC using 1116 for my IRS return since I will not qualify for 2555 under the 330 day rule by Sept 2018 due to travel.
