I am having difficulties importing the 1099-B from Northwestern Mutual.  After logging in, Turbotax indicates that the data has been imported successfully and I should return to Turbotax, but the data does not seem to have transferred and the only options are to skip import or try again.  Advice would be appreciated.

    Can you clarify if the information is showing in the tax return summary?  To view the tax return summary follow these steps in TurboTax Online:

     

    1. From the left rail menu in TurboTax Online, select Tax Tools (You may have to scroll down on the left rail menu.)
    2. Select Tax Tools 
    3. On the drop-down select Tools 
    4. On the pop-up menu titled “Tools Center”, select View Tax Summary 
    5. On the left sidebar, select Preview my 1040 

     

    If using TurboTax Desktop, click forms and view to see if the 1099B forms have been included.

    The issue with importing from Northwestern has been addressed and you should be able to proceed now.  

     

    First, make sure your program is updated.  This can be done by logging into your desktop product.  Select Online in the menu on the top, and then select Check for Updates.

     

     

    If that does not update your program, you can also manually update your program.

     

    Then, follow these steps to import your 1099.
