Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you are working in Turbo Tax online, here are the steps.

  1.  As you start entering your stock sales, the program will eventually ask Do these sales include any employee stock, here you say yes.
  2. Then as you begin entering your stock information, under sale information>what type of investment did you sell>select Employee Stock purchase plan (ESPP) Then enter the sale information.,
  3. Next screen asks, Adjust your cost basis to ensure your best outcome.  Then select I can't find it, I need some help
  4. Then there will be a screen asking you is it from an employer with an existing W2 or is one without. Make one selection or the other.
  5. Next screen will say Now, we'll walk you through entering the rest of your sales info.  Select sounds good. 
  6. Next screen is where you enter your ESPP sales information.  If compensation income was not included on a W2, put 0.
  7. Finish the section.
