Captital Gains -Divorce-Rent

[paininmyhead]

Hi Folks,

I have a house which I am selling after a divorce. I was forced out of the family home 4yrs ago and had to live with in rented accommodation. The courts a year ago allowed me to rent the house as my ex was unable to pay the mortgage.

One year later the courts have allowed me to sell the house does this mean if I sell I am liable for capital gains?.

I still consider this my primary residence although I was forced out.

This was never an investment property.

Who owns the house - you? You and your ex?

When did you acquire it, for how much, what is the sales value.
