How do I report a stock sale when I don't have a 1099-B?

[DavidD66]

You will report that in the same section in which you report stock sales with a 1099-B and other investment sales.  To enter: 

• Type "Investment sales" in the search window and click Enter
• Click on "Jump to Investment sales"
• What you will see next may vary depending on whether or not you have already entered a Form 1099-B
• On the page with "Did you sell any investments in 2020?"  Answer Yes
• Indicate "Other" on the page with "OK, what type of investments did you sell?" and click Continue
• Enter the name of the person or firm that brokered this sale
• On the page with "Now we’ll walk you through entering your sale details" for "What type of investment you sold" (Indicate Stock (non-employee)")"
• Indicate "How did you receive this investment?
• For Description, I would put "Stock Sales - no 1099-B"
• Enter the details of the sale, and Continue and repeat for Short-Term sales

Would this hold true if my wife sold some stock and the company in France where the stock was held but didn't have a 1099b biut has a tax document very similar to a 1099B and if so, how do I report that?

4. Tell us about the sale... enter stock and shares
5. Now we'll walk you through entering your sale details.
