Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@Boyan -- almost, but your 'option a' isn't correct. If you follow the original answer that started all this, you don't get a second 8949. You have to enter 0 for 'sales price', AND you have to enter a number into the 'partnership basis' that cancels out the ordinary gain. If you do BOTH of those things, the next screen will show $0 for Cap Gain and TT won't generate a new, unnecessary, redundant 8949.
That eliminates all the questions about how to get rid of a 1099-B. Which is why I handle all my MLP sales this way.
If you're intent on pursuing B, though, then one option is to edit the 1099-B in Forms mode, blanking out all the entries for the offending MLP. OR, set the cost basis to match the sales proceeds, setting cap gain to 0 on that 1099-B entry.
**Note also, I'm not a Tax Preparer/CPA. Just a volunteer, seasoned, TurboTax user.
Use any advice accordingly!
