No need for concern. You can enter the sales in a summary type of action by using the information provided here.
You should separate transactions by holding period -long term from short term. Then you can enter them yourself as two summarized sales.
- Long term is a holding period of more than one year and receives capital gain tax treatment (0%, 10%, 15%, 20% depending on your regular rate of tax)
- Short term is a holding period of one year or less and receives ordinary gain tax treatment (your regular rate)
Columns should be similar to Form 8949 (grouped together by holding period):
- Description
- Date Acquired
- Date Sold
- Proceeds
- Cost
- Gain/Loss
These worksheets can be filed after your tax return is accepted (Form 8949 from CoinBase).
If you are e-filing your tax return, then mail your statements along with Form 8453 to the following address within three days after the IRS accepts your tax return:
Internal Revenue Service
Attn: Shipping and Receiving, 0254
Receipt and Control Branch
Austin, TX 73344-0254
If you need a blank Form 8453, you can download this pdf, enter your address information and check the box for Form 8949 (this form is really just a cover sheet).
