Get your taxes done using TurboTax

It depends. If you are required to file a tax return then these transactions are required to be included. If all of the sales are $1 the question is how many there are. 

 

You can use a summary total for all of the sales so that you only add one. It's important for you to use your cost basis as well.  You can always use direct entry, with summary totals.  The only exception is wash sales, which must be entered separately, if you have any.

 

Combine them by holding period:

  • Long term is a holding period of more than one year (one year plus one day) and receives capital gain tax treatment (0%, 10%, 15%, 20% depending on your regular rate of tax)
  • Short term is a holding period of one year or less and receives ordinary gain tax treatment (your regular rate)

Do not enter using import unless you already did that. Select to 'I'll type it myself'
