Selling rental property - Splitting the Capital gain

My spouse and I sold a rental property (owned by both of us).

Do I enter the full value of the Proceeds of disposition, Adjusted cost base, & Outlays and Expenses under each one of us return?

Or, shall I split (50/50) the Proceeds of disposition, Adjusted cost base, & Outlays and Expenses that each of our returns reflects only half?

 

Thank you in advance!

You would need to split the Proceeds of disposition, Adjusted cost base, & Outlays and Expenses and enter the amounts on each return. You can split the amounts in half, but you can also split them a different way if that better reflects your situation.

Are you preparing your 2023 tax return? Are you using TurboTax Online or TurboTax CD/Download?
