Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@DavidD66  The basis of the transactions that is included on the broker statement usually does not include the amount that was paid to you as wages on your W2.  You will have to manually adjust the basis to reflect that amount and include it as part of the stock sale.  Otherwise you are being taxed on that amount twice.
