1099 Import issue

user17722831808 — Sat, 28 Feb 2026 14:03:41 GMT

During the import of my 1099 investment sales transactions, those investments with "S&P" in the name had the name replaced by the letter "P". Why isn't the "&" allowed?

See the turbotax message below:

! Avoid using symbols like ', ", &, <, and >.

Example: 20 shares of XYZ company.

Is the above limitation/restriction clearly communicated to the financial businesses that produce the 1099 sales transactions?

Thanks for the Help.
