Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Worthless is a way to explain why you have a proceeds of zero.

If the detail is on your broker 1099-B, no other documentation should be attached.

 

---
For non-covered securities ( BOX B or E) showing zero (wrong) basis, enter the correct basis yourself.
Use code "B" and put -0- in col (g).
For Box A or D, leave basis as reported, use Code "B" and put an adjustment in col(g).
If the basis is not reported to IRS, there's nothing to adjust.
