Form 1099-S - Proceeds From Real Estate Transactions

Caution: DRAFT—NOT FOR FILING
This is an early release draft of an IRS tax form, instructions, or
publication, which the IRS is providing for your information as a courtesy.
Do not file draft forms. Also, do not rely on draft forms, instructions, and
publications for filing. We generally do not release drafts of forms until we
believe we have incorporated all changes. However, unexpected issues
sometimes arise, or legislation is passed, necessitating a change to a draft
form. In addition, forms generally are subject to OMB approval before they
can be officially released. Drafts of instructions and publications usually
have at least some changes before being officially released.
Early release drafts are at IRS.gov/DraftForms, and may remain there
even after the final release is posted at IRS.gov/DownloadForms. All
information about all forms, instructions, and pubs is at IRS.gov/Forms.
Almost every form and publication also has its own page on IRS.gov. For
example, the Form 1040 page is at IRS.gov/Form1040; the Publication 17
page is at IRS.gov/Pub17; the Form W-4 page is at IRS.gov/W4; and the
Schedule A (Form 1040) page is at IRS.gov/ScheduleA. If typing in a link
above instead of clicking on it, be sure to type the link into the address bar
of your browser, not in a Search box. Note that these are friendly shortcut
links that will automatically go to the actual link for the page.
If you wish, you can submit comments about draft or final forms,
instructions, or publications at IRS.gov/FormsComments. We cannot
respond to all comments due to the high volume we receive. Please note that
we may not be able to consider many suggestions until the subsequent
revision of the product.

For Transferor

This is important tax
information and is being
furnished to the IRS. If
you are required to file a
return, a negligence
penalty or other
sanction may be
imposed on you if this
item is required to be
reported and the IRS
determines that it has
not been reported.

Department of the Treasury - Internal Revenue Service

Instructions for Transferor
For sales or exchanges of certain real estate, the person responsible for closing
a real estate transaction must report the real estate proceeds to the IRS and
must furnish this statement to you. To determine if you have to report the sale or
exchange of your main home on your tax return, see the Instructions for
Schedule D (Form 1040). If the real estate was not your main home, report the
transaction on Form 4797, Form 6252, and/or the Schedule D for the
appropriate income tax form. If box 4 is checked and you received or will
receive like-kind property, you must file Form 8824.
Federal mortgage subsidy. You may have to recapture (pay back) all or part of
a federal mortgage subsidy if all the following apply.
• You received a loan provided from the proceeds of a qualified mortgage bond
or you received a mortgage credit certificate.
• Your original mortgage loan was provided after 1990.
• You sold or disposed of your home at a gain during the first 9 years after you
received the federal mortgage subsidy.
• Your income for the year you sold or disposed of your home was over a
specified amount.
This will increase your tax. See Form 8828 and Pub. 523.
Transferor’s taxpayer identification number (TIN). For your protection, this
form may show only the last four digits of your TIN (social security number
(SSN), individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN), adoption taxpayer
identification number (ATIN), or employer identification number (EIN)). However,
the issuer has reported your complete TIN to the IRS.

Account number. May show an account or other unique number the filer
assigned to distinguish your account.
Box 1. Shows the date of closing.
Box 2. Shows the gross proceeds from a real estate transaction, generally the
sales price. Gross proceeds include cash and notes payable to you, notes
assumed by the transferee (buyer), and any notes paid off at settlement. Box 2
does not include the value of other property or services you received or will
receive. See Box 4.
Box 3. Shows the address or legal description of the property transferred.
Box 4. If marked, shows that you received or will receive services or property
(other than cash or notes) as part of the consideration for the property
transferred. The value of any services or property (other than cash or notes) is
not included in box 2.
Box 5. If checked, shows that you are a foreign person (nonresident alien,
foreign partnership, foreign estate, or foreign trust).
Box 6. Shows certain real estate tax on a residence charged to the buyer at
settlement. If you have already paid the real estate tax for the period that
includes the sale date, subtract the amount in box 6 from the amount already
paid to determine your deductible real estate tax. But if you have already
deducted the real estate tax in a prior year, generally report this amount as
income on the “Other income” line of the appropriate income tax form. For more
information, see Pub. 523, Pub. 525, and Pub. 530.
