Thank you. I used the summary method and just put the total for the entire 1099-B. Each sale was under the category noncovered short-term. For some of the individual line items there wasn't a cost basis. They were digital rewards from a credit card. Those rewards were converted to USD and cashed out. I have no way to calculate cost basis for those, so I did summary method and used the summary totals provided on the 1099-B. There were those totals provided even though there weren't individual cost basis for some line item there was a "total" for cost basis overall. Each category was uncovered short-term.
I did e-file this. But, I'm not sure what you mean by "..if you entered sales section totals for one more sales categories.."? And, for the other part of the true statement, yes, one of the bulleted items you listed is true. For example, I do meet the criteria of your first bullet point. The sales category for one or more summaries was short-term uncovered. They were all short-term uncovered, and I did e-file the original return, and the amendment.
So if I understand you correctly, I should mail the 8949 along with 8453, but don't need to include the 1099-B?
