Since it worked okay all the previous years, I believe, it's a ploy to force you to buy higher tier of TurboTax. Basically they want you to loosen your pocket a little more. If true, it's a down right dirty trick.
I basically deleted what they had pulled from my broker. Entered all the information from 'FORM 1099-B TOTALS SUMMARY.' Make sure you enter all the appropriate values from 'SHORT -TERM GAIN OR (LOSSES) - REPORT ON FORM 8949, PART I', Box A, Box A and Box B, Box B. Then from 'LONG -TERM GAIN OR (LOSSES) - REPORT ON FORM 8949, PART II' Box D, Box D and Box E, Box E. Of course, enter only non-zero values.
After MANUALLY entering all of this, I got the option to upload the 1099-B PDF from my broker.
It still does not look right to me. I will verify and update this post.
Update: It didn't look right because the year-end totals were not what I thought. I double checked everything and completed the return as per the 1099-B from my broker. I could have been thinking incorrect numbers.
