Getting error "Check this Entry" and "Form 1099-B worksheet

theuberpapaya — Fri, 22 Jan 2021 08:42:21 GMT

I imported a 1099-B directly from my broker and am getting this error which honestly doesn't make any sense. I know I can go to tax tools>tools>delete forms but when I try to delete any forms that say capital gns adjustment form I get a message saying they are deleted (but they aren't). Not sure what to do...

This is how you delete the 1099-b form.

Then click on Tools and select Delete a Form
Scroll through the list of forms and when you find the 1099-B, click Delete next to it
It will confirm that you want to delete the form, hit yes (or continue)
The form will be deleted

Another option is to delete income forms from the summary screen for that particular form.

Note: It might be a little for a final 1099-B.

Hello, thank you for your response.

I have stock sale gain/loss that I need to report on my tax return so how would deleting the form 1099-B help...when I do that it just deletes any information that I have reported under the Federal>Wages & Income>

Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other section. Then if I add that income back on it just puts the 1099-B form back into the forms section and I continue to get the same error. Can you just tell me how to get this "error" to go away? I literally used the Turbo tax tool to connect directly to TD ameritrade and import my 1099-B information so it really doesn't make any sense at all that I am getting errors like this. I've attached a screenshot.

Yeah man so an update: I called TurboTax twice because of this issue, and neither time were they able to help fix this. They quite literally couldn't figure it out. The last person I talked to said they would "open a case for me" and after I got off the phone I immediately got an email saying the case was closed. I switched to FreeTaxUSA literally as a result of their ineptitude in fixing this problem, FreeTaxUSA is actually free (they won't charge you to file your 1099s) and I did not experience this stupid error. Save yourself the hassle.
