Is your error, "Part III, line 5c, should not be greater than the gross sales price"?

Yes, then when I switched my existing entry from "Everything Else" to "Personal", I was still getting the error. The only way to fix it was to delete the existing entry, choose "Personal" from the start, then go back to Review.

I spoke with a TurboTax representative. The solution for me was to download my current return in progress and edit the lines using the desktop app. It wont allow you to edit these fields online. Hope this helps everyone.

Shouldn't this be reported as stock, we do pay transaction/commissions etc. All tax services should be on this, they saw this coming at least a year in advance....

Hi Everybody, I had to figure this out for one of our wonderful TurboTax customers!
Please follow these instructions to report your cryptocurrency.
1) Log in to TurboTax and click to continue your tax return.
2) On the left side bar, click TOOLS
3) The Tools Center will open up, click Topic Search.
4) In the search box for Topic Search, type Cryptocurrency
5) Select cryptocurrency from the list and click the blue GO button.
6) You will land on a page that asks “Did you sell or trade cryptocurrency in 2018?”.
7) Click YES
😎 From here, you can import your cryptocurrency info. If you do not see the service you use, then you will need to type in the info yourself.
This is a pretty good TurboTax article that discusses cryptocurrency. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tips/tax-payments/tax-tips-for-bitcoin-and-virtual-currency/L1ZOgU00...>
Hope that helps!

The last information I read regarding crypto is that the IRS is considering crypto as PROPERTY and NOT investment income. Either way TurbTax is dropping the ball on this and it's ridiculous.
