I can't resolve the issue with the downloading of 1099-Bs from
eTrade, but I can give you an alternative that is better than entering
hundreds of trades one at a time. You can summarize your transactions
on Form 8949, by entering the totals for different categories of sales
(e.g.
Box A with cost basis reported to the IRS). Here's how you do it:
The statements from your brokerage should include a summary of your account transactions for the year as well as the details for each individual transaction.
Mailing Instructions
After entering your transactions, complete and file your tax return as you normally would. Be sure to follow these extra instructions:
E-filed returns – Within three days after the IRS has accepted your return, mail the Form 8949 generated by TurboTax, a copy of the summary statements provided by your broker, and the Form 8453 generated by TurboTax, to the following address:
Internal Revenue Service
Attn: Shipping and Receiving, 0254
Receipt and Control Branch
Austin, TX 73344-0254
Paper-filed returns – Include the Schedule D prepared by TurboTax and a copy of your transaction summary from your broker or financial institution. Include both Schedule D and Form 8949 with your mailed return, along with any other paperwork specified in the Filing Instructions printout.
