Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Everything you mentioned above is critical to determine the tax on your securities trades.

I suggest you go back to the input screens for stock sales.  The two most common errors are the dates and the cost basis.

 

  1. Start at Federal
  2. Wages and Income
  3. Scroll to Investments & Savings
  4. Select Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other (1099-B) [Start or Revisit]
  5. Did you have investment income in 2022? - Yes
  6.  Get ready to be impressed Continue.
  7. Select Enter a different way.
  8. Choose the Box Stocks, Bonds, Mutual Funds Continue
  9. Follow the interview to post your information.

Unfortunately, you will have to check line by line.

Make sure the "Date Acquired" and "Cost Basis" is posted and accurate.

 

  1. As you enter the dates and proceeds, there is a check box for The cost basis is incorrect or missing on my 1099‑B
  2. Use this option to correct any errors on a cost basis.
