Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@Boyan -- I just did a quick test, and can confirm that there's no longer a 1099-B being created. But the potential duplication remains. If you don't force the "Enter Sale Information" interview to calculate $0 gain, TT will create a form 8949 for transactions "not reported on Form 1099-B". This 8949 has either box C (short term) or box F (long term) checked.
So if you decide to do it this way, you'll need to get rid of any 1099-B provided by the broker -- the 8949 created by TT should have the correct Cap Gain and it will flow to Sched D correctly.
In the end, you want to make sure that
- Sched D has the correct Cap Gain. In a complete disposition, where everything is either short or long-term, you have the choice of getting it there through the 1099-B from the broker, or the 8949 created by TT. Just make sure its only getting there once.
- Form 4797, Part II shows the Ordinary Gain
- Sched E, Part II has all the suspended losses that are released by the sale.
Note that, if you want to force the interview to show $0 for Cap Gain (so you do your edits in the broker's 1099-B), you'd
- enter $0 for Sales Price
- put -554 in Partnership Basis
- put 554 in for Ordinary Gain
- in the AMT column, you'd have 534 for Ordinary Gain (554-20), so you'd use -534 in the Partnership Basis.
- The above would avoid creating the new 8949, and allow the 1099-B to be adjusted
