    Jointly owned property and net worth
    On IRS form 8854 Part V, item 16. Do I enter half the FMV, half the gain and half the basis? I own the home jointly with my wife, so it only increases my net worth by half the FMV. I'll enter the full value of our jointly owned bank accounts, in item 1, because I have full access to them. Confused.

    Are BOTH of you leaving, or just YOU?
