Investors & landlords

I just did an option sale as a test, and I didn't have a problem either (box 1b2 was not checked for box 3).

 

OK, please try this.

 

  • Do a Search for 1099-b and click on the jump-to link.
  • The first screen should say "Here's the investment sales info we have so far".
  • Because some of your sales may be consolidated into one entry, click the Edit button.
  • Then you should see "Here's the info we have on these investment sales".
  • Delete the investment sale in question.
  • Then click Yes (I want to delete it) and then click Add to add a new entry.

 

See if that clears the problem.
