Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You are not understanding the issue.  This is ORDINARY income, not a capital gains. In 2023 Turbotax, cashless sales of NQSOs were handled correctly.  Look at the first two screen shots I've included from my 2023 TT for a similar NQSO exercise l did last year.  Then look at the last screen shot below from 2024 TT for a similar NQSO exercise from this year.  There is a totally different and wrong approach in 2024- TT missed the mark in 2024.  It can't handle cashless sales w/o an override as best I can tell.  If you can tell me where I went wrong, then I'd b e glad to try it but your 2024 software seems wrong on handling cashless NQSO.

 

In 2023 TT, after entering my W2 and then entering each cashless NQSO from the 1099-B, I get this screen:

For the next page after in 2023 TT:

However, in 2024 TT, you don't get to the screen above.  Instead, you get to this:
