Investors & landlords

 

For non-covered securities ( BOX B or E) showing zero (wrong) basis, enter the correct basis yourself.
Use code "B" and put -0- in col (g).
If the basis is not reported to IRS, there's nothing to adjust.

For Box A or D, leave basis as reported, use Code "B" and put an adjustment in col(g).

The box category determines ST or LT treatment regardless of  Date Acquired.
