Form 1099-B shows in Box 1e, cost basis $0. All the proceeds are from an NUA rollover in 2019. Turbo tax is recommending that I review my cost basis. Do I need to ?

My choices are:
- I know my cost basis and need to make an adjustment
- I don't want to make any changes to my cost basis right
now.
Which answer should I choose?

No, if you know for a fact that it is zero basis, then you would not make changes. The program is designed to be cautious.
