You can delete form 1099-B from TurboTax.  When deleting Form 1099-B, you will delete every page for the 1099-B entry and delete any worksheets that follow.  You can delete the form in TurboTax by following these steps:

 

  1. Login to TurboTax
  2. Click Tax Tools on the left side panel
  3. Click Tools
  4. Click Delete a Form
  5. Choose form
  6. Click Delete

I have the same problem, but Tax Tools does NOT appear on the left side of my screen when the return is open and active (or if it's not). Why on earth doesn't clicking the little trash can in the dumb dialog box introduced this year do what it does everywhere else - delete?

Some customers may experience a new way to navigate TurboTax this tax season.  See this TurboTax Help.

 

This navigation may help you remove the IRS form 1099-B:

 

  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Tax Home.
  • Click on the down arrow to the right of Review.
  • Click on the blue band labeled Review.
  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Tax Tools.
  • Click on Tools.
  • Click on Delete a form.
  • Find the form listed and click Delete to the right.

However, if the form re-generates, that means that there is an entry in the software that needs to be removed or changed.

 

If this is the case, return back to the point in the software where the questions that populate the form are asked.
