Taxpayer decided to rent out their home for 4 months - tourist reason.  They lived in the home the other 4 months.  I was thinking that I would enter the information on Schedule E worksheet and the program would allocate the expenses between the rental v. the personal.  The program doesn't like personal use days of 214 and maybe due to that, it won't calculate the "rental expenses".  Should I be using a different form to report the rental income, or do I just manually determine the proper expense allocation?


Can you elaborate on "doesn't like personal use days of 214"?  Is there an error?  What kind of expenses are you entering?  How many rental days?  Did they move back in after the rental period?
