can't upload 8949 pdf form anymore?

[zensx]

Hi,

I clearly remember I was able to upload form 8949 to TurboTax in 2022 and 2023 (I still keep copies of them on my PC after i uploaded them), but I don't see an option of uploading it for my 2024 taxes. Did TurboTax remove the ability to upload the form recently?

It did not remove that ability.  You may enter the summary information instead of each individual transaction.  Create a .PDF of the IRS form 8949 to upload into TurboTax Online.  Follow these steps.
