Can I make the change using the s/w on a Mac or do I need to upload it to the online service? If so, how do I upload it? Thanks
Yes, you would Edit 1099-B info the same way, if you're using TurboTax Desktop.
Type '1099-B' in the Search area, then 'Jump to 1099-b' to get to the Investment Summary page. Choose Review.
How would this work for non-1099 items? So I have a loss from a bad loan I made and its showing as short term loss (8949 and D) and I can't see how to change that to long term. Can't delete the 8949 it just reappears, and can't remove the items from the D either. Its like an endless loop of dysfunction for a simple thing I need to do.
Hoping someone has a clue on this! Thanks
