Turbotax's system doesn't recognize my .csv file type from coinpanda.io for tax year 2021. How can I enter the Form 8949 that I generated myself?

I already changed the file name .csv Also, I already Changed the headers inside my file to the recommended names. Coinpanda already generated a FORM 8949 for me. All I need to do is upload it to be sent with my taxes. How can I be sure that this is done if I complete my taxes here?

You can't upload a form 8949 that was generated externally.

Instead choose the mail in option.

You summarize what is on the 8949 on one line (or 2 if Long Term and Short Term holding periods).

 

Then TurboTax will present the mailing address where you send  the transaction details  (your Form 8949)  to the IRS within three business days of IRS accepting your e-Filed tax return.

If your 8949 is in PDF format and you use TurboTax Online,

TurboTax may ask you to attach it; this avoids the US mail step.
