I am selling my house after a divorce. The house was bought for 220k in 1998, had a fire in 2006 and was rebuilt and expanded. It is now selling for 975k, with a mortgage balance of 320k + 48k in forbearance. I am splitting the proceeds with my ex-spouse, who gets the first 100k and we split the balance 50/50. I used 22 weeks of severance pay for improvements. The house was my primary residence until 2016 when I was evicted. What do I put on my 593 form to calculate my capital gains correctly?

I had $50k in short-term losses in the stock market in 2020. I am selling a rental property and would make $50k in long-term capital gain. Can I use my short-term losses to avoid paying capital gains tax when I sell my property?

I received an auditor’s report on three years of tax returns that did not accept any business expenses and converted them to standard deductions, resulting in an amount due, along with significant interest and penalties. This seems unfair. What are my options?

My refund was sent back from my bank. Where is my refund? I filed married file joint and used direct deposit, which was denied. The refund was then sent to my address, but I have not received it.
