    Post: Utility Easement payment & the IRS

    Posted by Kathryn on 2/24/07


    My husband and I have owned our primary home for 8 years.
    In 2006, the utility company gave us an easement payment
    for expanding the existing easement and to compensate the
    larger electric poles replacing the old ones. We received
    $7300 for the land and $2500 for waiving additioanl
    appraisals. For taxes, they sent us a 1099-S with the
    total amount of $9800 in box 2 and EASEMENTS in box 3.
    What are our responsibilities for tax purposes and where
    does this go on the form?
    Thank you,
    Kathryn
    PS: I've been batting zero at any definative answer so far.
