Yes, you are required to report all income on a tax return. For the stock sale you will need to use the Premier online edition. Or any of the TurboTax desktop CD/Download editions.

You should receive a Form 1099-B from the broker who handled the stock sale in either late January or early February. The information from the 1099-B is entered on your tax return.

If you qualify you can use one of the 8 IRS FREE FILE options (AGI has to be $73K or less)... https://www.irs.gov/filing/free-file-do-your-federal-taxes-for-free
