I have a 1099-DA from coinbase which shows a $-.80 loss. They said that this 1099-DA will be sent to the IRS, so why do I also have to send them a copy?

No. You do not send the IRS a copy of the form, but you do need to report this on your return.

Thank you, I should have clarified, TurboTax wanted me to upload the form so it could be sent to irs I think. I don’t understand as it’s should already have but TurboTax needed me to upload it for some reason.

Check in your forms list and make sure you do not have multiple 1099-DAs entered. If you do, delete them. And when you entered your from, did you change the default answer to YES? on the Did you get a 1099-DA? screen?

Thank you. I answered the question with yes, I received a 1099-da. I don’t see multiple forms for that. And I can’t even find where I uploaded and attached it to TurboTax

you do all this so the amount will be included on Schedule D.

If it says mark Box G or J, you won't send the 1099-DA details (not attached).

Make sure you enter this in as a single line item in the investment portion of the program instead of choosing to summarize. When you enter the investment sale into the return, it asks you if you wish to summarize your sales or enter those one by one. Choose to enter these one by one even though it is one line item.

I summarized it and already submitted my taxes so does that mean I have to send a copy of a 1099DA . and I also entered sales from another exchange that I did not receive a 1099 DA from and I entered those sales individually - do I have to send a copy of my log for that and if so,what is the address I send it to

The filing instructions prepared by the TurboTax software will tell you whether an IRS form 8453 was generated and what needs to be enclosed with the form.

Note that the form lists the items that need to be enclosed with the form.

In addition, the instructions for the form include the mailing address.
