I have approximately 100 1099DIVs to enter. If I can't input them from a spreadsheet (another question I recently posted), I will have to put them all in individually. Many are repeats from last year and I can update them, which is great. But it takes WAY too many steps. This can't be right--what am I missing? Here are the steps I take:
Screen............................................................Action
1 Let's get information from 1099................fill in updated information, hit continue
2 Uncommon situations.................................Answer "no", hit continue
3 Uncommon situations................................. Wait for the "please Wait" messages to stop, then continue again
4 Lets finish pulling... ..................................... Scroll to the next 1099 needing update and select, continue
5 Lets enter your brokerage.......................... Skip Import
6 Okay, lets start with one investment type..Dividends, continue
and now we are to step 1 for the next 1099.
Step 3 serves no purpose that I can see
Why can't step 4 just take you to the next 1099 needing updating, without scrolling through all the divs not needing updating?
Why steps 5 and 6 every time?
With so many to do and the slow response from TT with each "continue", this is a pain.
