This would be reported on 1040 at a loss.

You sell it as a rental property...being a personal residence 12 years ago (your duplicate post said 8 years as a rental) means nothing to your situation.

You'll have 8 or 12 years of deprecation to recapture, so while its possible you have a loss on the actual sale (your duplicate post mentioned a loss), you may have a gain to pay taxes on.

Reference to screen 22 or 17 or whatever is for Lacerte Not for ProConnect tax online.
Since it was a rental for 8 years you do it as a single disposition with the result going on Form 4797.
