How to report data in Box 1g for 1099-B?

My 1099-B has data in Box 1g.  When I enter that data on the 1099-B Worksheet I get an error message—Form 1099-B Worksheet (name of mutual fund company): Wash sale loss disallowed—3 is only for wash sales. Do not enter for X (name of mutual fund sold).

You would enter the wash sale amount in Box 1G that was reported to you by your broker.  The adjustment code for wash sales is just a "W". You would need to select that code and then proceed through the remaining questions.

   **Different Adjustment Codes:

    • W= Wash sale
    • C= Collectible
    • D= Market discount
