My four siblings don't have a 1099-B for the sale of a property that we inherited from our deceased parents. How do I enter my share (1/5) of the CG into TT desktop?

I ask because TT Desktop is calculating it on the entire sale, hence asking how I only pay my fair share w/o having to mail in paper.

You just have to enter your share of the proceeds and adjust the basis accordingly.

@LinJs36 - remember that the cost basis is based on the property value on the date of your 2nd to pass parents death....take 1/5 of that.

Figure the report as if there were one owner.

Then divide all amounts by five. Give the numbers to the others.
