Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Since TurboTax had already charged me also, I went ahead and followed @AnnetteB6 ’s instructions for how to file using a summary instead of the imported data, and it wasn’t difficult at all, and actually TurboTax asked for a pdf of the 1099-B and still did all the filing electronically for me - there was nothing I need to mail. 

Yes, it’s ridiculous that TurboTax doesn’t just handle it all automatically once you link it with your investment account, and it’s ridiculous that the fix is not clearer since this has got be a very common problem, but it’s not that hard to workaround. I probably won’t be abandoning TurboTax over this.
