What exactly do I need to mail in with my 8949 form ?
2) Do I need to attach copies of the itemized 1099-B forms that I used? Do I need anything else?

Hi, I just efiled tax returns and now I read I need to submit my 8949 (since only summary was sent). My 8949 is 3000 pages long. Do I really need to go to FedEx and print 3000 pages and then mail 3000 pages to the IRS?

you really need to find some tax software that will let you attach details in PDF format when you e-File.
Detail reporting exception: You should be aware that your Schedule D category Box A or Box D sales without adjustments do not require Form 8949, so there is no reason to import or key in those transactions. No mailing is necessary.

What if my 1099-B does not have cost basis as well ?
My RSU vested shares proceeds are reported on 1099-B without the cost basis. The brokerage has sent me another piece of paper with the cost basis - which is not any standard IRS form.
Again, too many transactions to list individually in 8949.

You would need to insert the cost basis as reported on the separate piece of paper. In the sales section, you will need to report it as either long-term or short term basis not reported to the IRS.
