    Box 5 is not checked. It means you are not personally responsible to pay the loan.
    Non-Recourse Loan. A non-recourse loan is a loan for which the lender’s only remedy in case of default is to repossess the property being financed or used as collateral. The lender cannot pursue you personally in case of default.
    So in your case debt canceled in not income. Your U.S. Tax Return: Foreclosure or Repossession of Main Home
