Forms 1099B and 1099-NEC

Hello, 

 

What to do if I received 1099-NEC from my former employer and 1099-B from the Broker for the same transaction? 

According to my former employer I should use only the 1090-NEC because the 1099-B that the broker sent me is for information purpose only and that I should not enter it on my tax return.

According to the broker, I need to use the 1099-B on my tax return or the IRS will penalize me. 

 

If I use both forms, the system deducts double. 

 

Please help!

 

Thank you
