1099-B Section 1256

[pioneerzhu]

how Turbotax will handle section 1256 pls? after I imported form 1099-B, I don't see it in turbotax.

section 1256 gains and losses are first reported on form 6781. then the amounts are carried to schedule D lines 4 and 11. I do not know if Turbotax can correctly import section 1256 transactions. 

you don't have to report the details according to IRS instructions - just the "1099-B" in column (a)  and what is on line 11 

see the instructions for line 1
