Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I have the same issue.  TT categorized my option transactions as stock sales and it is asking for the cost basis.  Most of my 30 option transactions expired.  There is no cost basis.  I just need to pay taxes on the premiums I received for selling Puts and Calls.  If I change the transaction to “options”, and “expired” it is still asking for a cost basis.  As soon as I click “expired”, it wipes out the option premium I received.  This is not right. I need to know how to correct these transactions.  According to other users, this issue was introduced in an update this year.  It is also asking me to click whether “the cost basis is incorrect or missing on my 1099-B”  OR  “I have other boxes on my 1099-B to enter”.   This is definitely a TT bug.  Thanks!
