Deductions & credits

TT does not have to make entering "Income from 1099-K" for EBay items sold so confusing. The question "Enter the total proceeds for items sold at a loss" suggests that you put down the amount you collected for items sold at a loss. However, if you do this you will end up with an error when you do your review because the numbers won't match. I found that the only way to get numbers to match is to enter $0.00 on that question. Later on you can report each item you sold and it will accept your gains and losses there.

 

Every year I dread doing the 1099K/Ebay section because there are always confusing/ambiguous questions and it is never the same.  TT needs to simplify this section!
