Dividing 1099-B Earnings

[meetma]

How you divide 1009B earnings with spouse like you can on a 1099-INT.  Turbo taxes is apply all the income to me so I can not qualify for an IRA deduction.  The 1099-B earnings are from a joint brokerage account.

If the 1099-b is issued to you SSN, then you will need to report the proceeds as on 1099-B You can then adjust the  basis to show half of your gain/loss. Your spouse can report half of the amounts shown on Form 1099-B.
