Investors & landlords

You don't have the same situation.  

The original poster had a noncovered security and the broker put the correct basis in Box 1e.  That number didn't go to the IRS, but it was the correct basis of $10 per share for the 6 shares sold.

I expect that your 1099-B is reporting the sale as covered and, since 2014, brokers only have to report the "out of pocket" of the shares sold, which is $0 for the typical RSU.  You enter the 1099-B as it reads and then correct the basis, ("I have additional info" button), on the next page.
