My plans have since changed and now I would like to sell.

Namely, these 2 key bits...(1) Even tho the ownership test is only required of 1 of 2 spouses, the residency test is required of BOTH spouses if filing jointly, which we were planning to do.... yet my wife did NOT live in the house during the past 5 years, which means that we'd have to file separately and will definitely complicate things quite a bit, but if it's worth it.... then, well, it's worth it!!

If you are planning to refi I highly recommend not doing any more price drops.
