State tax filing

I was addressing the concern about Massachusetts not accepting "various" instead of specific buy and sale dates for capital gains.

 

I used "various " last year with any issue.

 

I cannot see what information is sent if you file electronically, but printing out "all official forms required for filing" as if I was filing by paper shows the only forms are Schedule B with summaries of Capital Gains taken from Federal schedule D. Individual sales or securities do not show up.

 

With the desk top version there is no method to attache the 1099B, even if it was required.

 

So it looks like using "various" if it is accepted by the Feds is OK here too.

 

Anybody have evidence otherwise?
