I am importing from a different source, and have same problem that 1099 import is not picking up long/short category.   But I checked the1099 worksheet, and it does have all that info in it -- long, short, wash sale.   But interactive form has a blank for category, wants you to fill it in for lots and lots of transactions.   The 8949 info inside the 1099 worksheet also has that info; why doesn't it use it?   Wants you to separate out all the wash sales, separate the long sales from the short sales, and add them up -- it could just do that!    I don't remember having this issue last year.
