Field options for Sales Section don't match my 1099-B form. I see: Reported to IRS with an X on Net Proceeds. "Proceeds from broker and barter exchange transactions"

I do not see anything on my form distinguishing between short term or long term.

Please see this answer from KittyM.

 

You can calculate these details for yourself, although they should be on your 1099-B.  The 1099-B uses terminology like "Long-Term sales reported to the IRS with Box B checked."

Long-Term means you held it more than a year.  Short-Term means you held it one year or less.  (You can calculate both these from the dates purchased and sold.)

Covered sales are Category/Box A (meaning what you paid for it is reported to the IRS), and Non-covered are Category/Box B (meaning what you paid is not reported to the IRS).  If it doesn't show what you paid, you will need to look it up in your records.
