I suggest you delete the stock transaction, start over... Make the cost basis the same as the proceeds, enter date the date you sold your shares for both.... You should have a $0 gain/loss on the stock sold. Don't go into need more help. Your company is the broker. Explainatin will be Company stock options excercised and sold, no 1099.
your taxes will only increase when you input the Other income which will be the amount of the check. So you will be taxed on the FMV of the stock minus your cost to excercise as that is the value that should have been ordinary income. Your taxes should increase probably close to 20-30%% of the cash you received.
