Can I still efile if I am using form 8453 to mail in my stock trades?

The cover sheet for the brokerage filing report  from TT says to attach the 1099B forms (multiple stocks traded)  to a 8453 and send it to the IRS ( I am e-filing). BUT the IRS does not list such documents in their 8453 list of documents they will accept.  Does that mean I cannot e-file my 1040?

Yes, you can still e-file.  You should also be sending Form 8949 Sales and Dispositions of Capital Assets along with Form 8453.  Check the box for Form 8949 and the additional documentation (summary statement and/or 1099B forms) are the supporting documents that you will also send to support Form 8949.
