Yes, what you indicated in Edit 2 is certainly an option and given your understanding of RSUs and the relevant aspects of these transactions, you can report these sales as a simple sale of "plain-vanilla" stock, stock that's no different than a stock you bought through your broker. You will have to delete what you have entered, and it appears you have already done that.  In the end, the overriding objective is to create an accurate tax return, and it appears you have done that. 

 

While you might have already completed this task, answer NO to 'is this employee stock ' which will avoid having to enter vesting info, stock sold for taxes, etc.  Moreover, the value of the RSUs has already been included on your W-2 and reported to the IRS by your employer.
