Hi James,  I'm using TurboTax Online Premium (via Fidelity offer). Here is what I did. I imported the PDF version of one 1099-B (after the import from Fidelity didn't work right). There are about 291 entries. I reviewed the first 200 entries. I moved to the group containing the remaining 91. I see at the top of that page that it thinks there are 91 left to review. However, the table that should be showing the 91 entries is empty and says: You currently don't have any sales on this page After the import I checked to see that all entries were available before reviewing.  They were. It seems that reviewing transaction range 1 - 200 breaks transaction range 201 - 291. I did some experiments after importing the PDF again. It seems that reviewing an item on the last page of transaction range 1-200 breaks range 201-291. I'm unable to finish reviewing that 1099-B and expect to have the same problem with another 1099-B that has a total of 789 transactions. Thank you for responding! I haven't tried to print or view my taxes because I haven't finished reviewing the items in the income section. Therefore, I haven't finished the rest of the Federal and State returns.
