Your rationalization makes it sound like you have got a $12k capital achieve in your return, when it needs to be a a lot decrease quantity. The following query I would have is whether or not or not you had been really taxed on that $12k in capital achieve. There’s a 0% capital good points tax bracket in case your earnings is low sufficient.
In any other case, should you do have the next earnings, you had been in all probability taxed on the $12k achieve, which might almost certainly make you eligible for a refund from the IRS and possibly your state, relying on whether or not or not your state taxes capital good points. To get the state of affairs corrected, an amended return is almost certainly the next step.
