My Form 1099-B shows the following:
Applicable check box on Form 8949: X
Date acquired: Blank
Stocks were acquired on various dates, all of them greater than 1 year ago. The TurboTax questionnaire does not ask for this information. Where/how do I enter it?
As you're entering your Form 1099-B, there is a page that says "Now we'll walk you through entering the info on your *** 1099-B", mark the button with "Something other than a date" and select "Various". See the screenshot below:
Thanks... So I select "Various" and then several more screens come up but there is no place to input the dates. Am I missing something?
Entering various means that you do not have to input the specific dates. Various covers all the dates you made the acquisition. It is fine to use various so long as all the sold dates are more than one year after purchase date of the specific security.
Understood. Where do I say all the dates are greater than 1 year? That's the field I cannot find. Thanks.
