Can you file electronically and mail the 1099-B copies to the IRS,

Yes, you can e-file your return and mail a copy of your Form 1099-B along with Form 8453 (which TurboTax will generate).  

 

Mailing Instructions

 

Take a moment to double-check that your statements are complete. For each sale listed, there should be:

 

 - A Description

 - Date Acquired

 - Date Sold

 - Sales Price

 - Cost Basis

 - Gain or loss for each sale

 - A sale category based on how the sale was reported to you and the IRS

 

In some uncommon cases, there will be an adjustment code and adjustment amount.

 

NOTE: Any sales summaries that include only Box A or Box D sales, and which have no adjustments to gain/loss, do not need to be included on a statement mailed to the IRS.

 

Here's how to mail your statements:

 

If you are e-filing your tax return, then mail your statements along with Form 8453 to:

 

 Internal Revenue Service

 Attn: Shipping and Receiving, 0254

 Receipt and Control Branch

 Austin, TX 73344-0254

 

If you are not e-filing, then mail your statements with your entire tax return to your local IRS office.
