The remaining half (that is, your spouse's half) doesn't have

the home was later transferred to you by your spouse (or

credit claimed by both you and your spouse (or ex-spouse).

requirement continues until the year in which the 2-year
period ends. On the tax return for the year in which the 2-year
period ends, you must include all remaining installments as
an increase in tax. Note that since the 15-year repayment
period for homes purchased in 2008 began with your 2010
tax return and ends with your 2024 tax return, the last
possible year of repayment will be for 2024. Therefore, if the
2-year period ends after 2024, you will not have any
remaining installments due as your balance will be fully paid
off with your 2024 tax return.
Line 3g. If you don't have a gain, you don't have to repay
any of the credit, unless you sold your home under threat of
condemnation to someone who is related to you. If the buyer
is related to you, the rules explained above for line 3f apply,
except that you must repay the entire amount of the credit
you claimed if you didn't acquire a new home within the
2-year period. This is true even if you had a loss on the sale.

cease to be your main home, don't complete a separate
Form 5405 with your information.

1. If you checked the box on line 3a, enter the smaller of
line 6 or line 7 on line 8.
2. If you checked the box on line 3c or line 3d, enter the
amount from line 6 on line 8.
3. If you checked the box on line 3f or line 3g, the
following rules apply.
Note. If you originally claimed the credit on a joint return,
instructions 1 and 2 above apply even if you aren't filing a
joint return with the deceased taxpayer for 2023.
a. If you checked the box on line 3f for an event that
occurred in 2023 and you didn't sell the home to a related
person (defined earlier), your repayment is limited to the gain.
If line 7 is less than line 6, divide line 7 by 2.0. Otherwise,
divide line 4 by 15.0. This is the minimum amount you must
repay with your 2023 return. Enter this amount (or a larger
amount if you choose) on line 8. But see Repaying more than
the minimum amount below.
b. If you checked the box on line 3f or line 3g for an event
that occurred in 2023 and you sold the home to a related
person (defined earlier), divide line 4 by 15.0. This is the
minimum amount you must repay with your 2023 return.
Enter this amount (or a larger amount if you choose) on
line 8. But see Repaying more than the minimum amount
below.
c. If you don't repay your credit earlier, you continue to
repay the amount described above with your 2024 tax return.
But see (d) next for an exception.
d. If you don't acquire a new main home within 2 years of
the event, (c) above doesn't apply. Instead, you must include
any remaining installments as an increase in tax on the tax
return for the year in which the 2-year period ends.
Part II. Repayment of the Credit
If you owned the home and used it as your main home during
all of 2023, you must continue repaying the credit with your
2023 tax return. You don't have to file Form 5405. Instead,
enter the repayment on your 2023 Schedule 2 (Form 1040),
line 10.
If you are required to repay the credit because you
disposed of a home you purchased, or that home ceased to
be your main home, you must generally repay the balance of
the unpaid credit with your 2023 tax return. An exception
applies if your home was destroyed or condemned, or you
disposed of the home under threat of condemnation, and you
didn't acquire a new main home within 2 years of the event.
