Get your taxes done using TurboTax
The reason the non-vested RSUs were not included on the 1099-B is because of the nature of RSUs. They are not really stock. They are units, representing stock. When they vest, the Company then issues you stock, but until they are vested, they are just a memo entry. As far as you're concerned, the stock didn't really exist, as it was only a promise to give you stock at some future date. So, when your un-vested shares were cased out, the company just paid you the set price per share promised - nothing was actually sold. !00% of the value of the un-vested shares should have been reported on your W-2 as ordinary income. There is no sales transaction to report to you on a 1099-B, nor for you to report on Form 8949/Schedule D.
For your vested shares, you actually owned the stock. So they bought the stock which created a gain (or loss) on the sale. Your cost basis in the vested shares is the value you were taxed on when they vested.
