Get your taxes done using TurboTax

if your accountant is giving you forms you can attach them to your form 1040 and file on paper.

If your accountant is giving you transaction details for everything you did on forms 8949, there's nothing else you need to do. Don't use the TurboTax summary option or you'll be making the mail-in election and conflicting with the supplied forms .

 

If your accountant is giving you Form 6781, use it, there's nothing else for you to do.

If your accountant is giving you Forms with "M" in col (f) or
"see stmt" that's a different story; reply back.

 

if your accountant is not giving you Schedule D, maybe you should ask him/her for that ! It has to comply with the other forms you are attaching.

 

OR

you can get Schedule D in PDF-fillable form at www.irs.gov and fill it out yourself based on the other forms.

Enter the subtotals for each sales category on the Schedule D line for that. 

each sales category will be on it's own set of 8949 pages.

 

 

Once you start doing what you have in mind, you'll either see what needs to be done, or, have a big mess on your hands.
