I really think my mind is braking down after so many years of taxes. I need to know the code section for depreciating residential rental property. I know there is a letter/s after the number. I believe it is section 168 (?????). Can someone please enlighted my brain? Do you know where I can look this up myself? Thanks a lot for any info!

(A) Nonresidential real property.
(B) Residential rental property.

Agree with esteemed colleague from New York
IRC § 167(b) Cross reference
For determination of depreciation deduction in case of property to which section 168 applies, see section 168.

Thank you
Thank you very much. I will use the 168(b)(3).
I need it to complete the Form 3115, Schedule E, item d which asks for: The depreciation method of the property (which is the residential rental property) including the applicable code section (e.g. 200% declining balance method under section 168(b)(1).
Thanks again! I feel like I am getting "brain dead". I imagine I will definitely be dead after this tax season!Comment
