One option is to start a free tax return in TurboTax Premier Online. You do not pay for the return until you file it, so you won't have to pay a fee for the Online version.  Enter (import) your cryptocurrency information in the Crypto section, and then open the TurboTax Premier Online with TurboTax CD/Download Desktop.

 

See here.

 

 

Then you add the rest of your tax data and file.

 

Does your provider generate a .csv file for your use?  Another option to consider is to upload cryptocurrency information into TurboTax CD/Download Premier Desktop.

 

A .csv file can be converted to a .txf file using a utility such as Easytxf.  Then import the .txf file into TurboTax CD/Download Premium Desktop.

 

  • Use Easytxf to convert the .csv file into .txf file.
  • Import .txf file into Turbotax Desktop:    File / Import / From Accounting Software / Other Financial Software (TXF) file /  Continue / Choose a File to Import / Import now.
  • A 1099-B with all Cryptocurrency transactions is now created.   This entry can now be edited to include the account details.  Each transaction can be edited as well.
