category. It will require you to mail a copy of your Form 1099-B along
with Form 8453 (which TurboTax will generate). To do this in TurboTax
Online,
Click on Search
- In the Search Window type 1099-B
- Click on Jump to
1099-B
- Click + Add an
Account (if the
account you were trying to download is showing, delete it first)
- Answer Yes to "Did you get
a 1099-B or a brokerage statement for these sales?"
- Click on "I'll type it
in myself"
- Select your Bank or brokerage
and click Continue
- On the page with "Tell us
about your ... 1099-B" click the button "I'll enter a
summary for each sales category"
- Enter your Investment Sale
information and repeat to you have entered for each category.
After entering all
