If you actually sold the stock near the end of the year the issue may be with the trade date vs the settlement date. The trade date is the date that the transaction was agreed to, and is often a few days before the settlement date which concludes the transfer between accounts.
The sale date for tax purposes is when the trade is made, rather than on its settlement date when the stock is delivered and payment is made.
If you did make the trade at the end of the year you should simply change the date to 12/31.
