When I saw the dialog box in question, I thought it was a requirement. Something akin to "1099-B imports are not supported in TT Deluxe." This is a new popup for TurboTax Deluxe Desktop users, not seen in previous years. I had two options -- "Continue" and "Upgrade". I chose continue and did not have to purchase the upgrade. The 1099-B info then imported smoothly into my return.
I'm sure many will upgrade, providing a nice revenue boost to Intuit.
