Thanks for the reply but I don't think that works. First, I have already imported my brokerage account from US Bank which list detail transactions on Form 8949. If I just override the totals ST/LT gains with my Vanguard total amounts, the totals will not equal the detail supplied on Form 8949. Second, from Intuit's website, I have to file Form 8949 since I have a wash sale (see below). So, it seems my Vanguard detail transactions HAVE to be entered on Form 8949 and I can't just enter summary numbers.
It sure seems like the better idea is for Intuit to work with Vanguard and solve this problem.
FROM INTUIT WEB SITE:
There are two exceptions to having to include transactions on Form 8949 that pertain to individuals and most small businesses:
- Taxpayers can attach a separate statement with the transaction details in a format that meets the requirements of Form 8949.
- Taxpayers can omit transactions from Form 8949 if:
- They received a Form 1099-B that shows that the cost basis was reported to the IRS, and
- the form does not show a non-deductible wash sale loss or adjustments to the basis, gain or loss, or to the type of gain or loss (short term or long term).
