in the 1099-B worksheet where the sale is reported.  this info will usually be shown by the broker on the 1099-B. there can be exceptions due to multiple accounts, loss in a taxable investment a/c, and repurchase in a tax-deferred a/c such as an IRA during the wash sale period.

all your wash sale info is on the consolidated 1099-B fro your broker.

This is required by IRS.

Import your 1099-B, if it is not too large, you will be done.
