The sale of the home is considered to be for health reasons if the taxpayer's primary reason for selling the home is to obtain medical attention (diagnosis, cure, mitigation, or treatment), or to obtain medical or personal care for a qualified individual suffering from a disease, illness, or injury.Unforeseen circumstances may include: an involuntary conversion (destruction or condemnation of home), unemployment, the inability to pay basic living expenses, or a change in living arrangement such as a divorce or legal separation or multiple births resulting from the same pregnancy, and other reasons to the extent provided in regulationsThe taxpayer's exclusion would have been disallowed because of the "more than one home sold during a 2-year period" rule, except that the taxpayer sold the home due to and of the three reasons listed above.The taxpayer otherwise qualifies for the sale of home exclusion, but there was a period of nonqualified use during which the home was not used as a principal residence (effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2008).Example: John bought his first home in 2003.
