Married couple, taxpayer in Military owns home, but gets orders to move so they rent the home for one year and then put it on the market for sale. House doesn't sell so about 6 months later they do a short sale and get a 1099C for little over 22,000. Don't guess I can file a 982 and call this qualified principal residence debt can I, since they rented if for a year. What are options, or are there none other than to claim this as income. Does fact he is military and moved due to orders affect anything?
