Unfortunately no. I did it with an accountant that Indknt believe knew how to complete and that was even with the Tax Guide that Meryl Lynch provided. Now the IRS says I owe $3k and the bulk of it is securities. How should I proceed? Thoughts?

You can do it in TurboTax, however, to amend you will need to input the return exactly as filed and then do the amendment. Lots of time. Let me put something in the answer that may help. Ok

Ok thanks as well as the program I will need to download

No they did not. It’s just a letter stating that I owe and they have a difference of what was entered vs what was sent to them via 1099b. The 1099b only shows total but doesn’t reflect the taxes I paid on it when I sold my non qualified stock. I was told that since 2014 changes were made and that I have to adjust cost. I’m not sure how to do that. I have a summary from Meryl Lunch that shows my taxes and how much my cost actually was. I would assume that last what i need to put bs what the 1099b shows

That will help, with the IRS think about this:

1) timely respond.

2) in your case look over the letter from IRS in great detail as if they are questioning stock sales and say you owe some money ($3K) there may have been some sales dates missing (and then the IRS will tax as Short-term versus Long Term) and the cost basis may be missing and IRS will enter $0 for cost basis.

So do this before you Amend the return to see if you can correct it this way. See link below:

If you need to Amend you will need the TurboTax Premier which is best for stock sales.
