Before the new law took effect, your answer is only partially correct for in most short sale sitiations the income arising from forgiven debt was partially or totallyt exepmpt from tax. Now the new law temporarily exempts from taxation debt forgiveness income (1099-C) resulting from the short sale or loan modification of owner-occupied dwellings' mortgages.
