A late depreciation
I have been renting my property since 2012. I have never depreciated it on my taxes. How would I go about making up this depreciation?

You'll want to consult your tax CPA/EA, or onboard one as you'll need to apply for a change in accounting method (Form 3115) -- impermissible to permissible. This will probably be in the "very difficult" category for a DIY preparer.
Good idea to get it taken care of, you'll have potential Unrecaptured Sec 1250 gain if you sell whether or not you depreciated.
