I'm not a tax person, but probably all they need is an amended tax return (1040X) with the sale reported. Grab the instructions for schedule D for the tax year you sold your home, and follow the section for "Sale of Your Home". It says you're only required to report the sale if the gains exceeded the exclusion amount or you received a 1099-S; but I'm guessing the IRS must have received a 1099-S even if you didn't. You might be able to get a copy of that through the IRS Tax Transcript service?

They probably don't need a copy of the Statute, but eh. :)

Just as an update, apparently it takes 1-3 months for docs to the IRS to make it to where they're supposed to go. I just got off the phone w/them (took 1hr:45mins to get a person) and found out I only owe $20 after faxing them my house sale docs in November!

What a weight off my back..
