Index options - imported with 1099B - Should be 1256?
My brokerage included a series of index option trades when I imported my 1099B from them. These options are SUPPOSED to be reported in the 1256 section, but here they are.
Do I just delete them and enter the consolidated 1256 reporting the way it is supposed to be?
(They all came in with wrong values, etc, because they are all non-reported and don't match the same format as the rest of the 1099 entries)
Where do I enter the unrealized items here? The Straddles and Contracts walk-through doesn't mention those:
This is what my brokerage 1099 (pdf format) shows for them:
REGULATED FUTURES CONTRACTS & SECTION 1256 OPTIONS
