I imported from Merrill last night, apparently it is a recent update.  Has your program been updated recently?  It's listed just as "Merrill" this year, not "Merrill Edge" or anything else.

Merrill Lynch often does not activate its "import partner" status until mid-February. As a result, the Merrill Lynch drop-down won't appear until the import is available. 

 

Merrill Lynch says that for many clients, consolidated 1099 tax-reporting statements will be posted to online accounts by February 27 or February 28, 2026. However, they may be posted later because of an extension filed with the IRS, to validate data. This means many consolidated 1099-B forms may not be finalized for import until late February or early March. This is mentioned in this source under the heading What Might Delay Consolidated 1099's.

As of Feb 27 the import from Merrill has moved to a new status, but when it asked me to click "Allow" instead of "Block" after connecting to Merrill's site, the "Allow" button does nothing.  I've used TT for a very many years and have had only minor problems importing my data from Merrill.  This year is the worst imaginable experience with it.

It's listed but not listed in the icons that appear. If you are using the online version, select the magnifying glass and type in Merrill in the search box under the heading "Let's Find Your Account". Merrill will now appear as Merrill with the website address. Merrill is the same as Merrill Lynch but abbreviated.

 

If you are working in the desktop version, Merrill is a choice listed as a financial institution.
