One of my Etrade 1099 is not available when I try to import it. I contact E*Trade and they told me to contact Turbotax. How do I import a 1099 when I don't see it on the list

    Your username and password for E*Trade might not cover both your original E*Trade account number and the new account number you were assigned back in May/June as a result of the Morgan Stanley merger.

     

    In other words, this is more of an E*Trade/MS issue than TurboTax. They did issue more than one 1099-B (one prior to circa May/June and one after that time).

    When I log into my Etrade account, I have all the 1099 forms in PDF but yet when I connect via Turbotax one is missing.  How do I import the 1099 as PDF (vs connected via my E*Trade account)

    You cannot import the PDF into TurboTax (that function is not supported).

     

    I would recommend that you contact E*Trade to see if they have any suggestions. I have a test copy of TurboTax and also an account with ET and all of the tax reporting forms are available for import on my test return.

    Same issue here. In my case I have 2 E-Trade accounts.   For each account I received 2 separate 1099's -- one for the pre-merger account number and another for the post-merger account number, so a total of 4 separate 1099s.  I see all 4 when I log into E-Trade, but when trying to import into TurboTax only 3 of the 4 are imported. For some reason one of the "new" account numbers (post-merger) is not included in the import.

    After multiple phone calls and attempts to import, I decided to just enter it manually.

    Running into the exact same issue today. Two 1099s show when I login to E*Trade but only one successfully imports into TurboTax. Tried different browsers, etc. to no avail.

    @JohnW152 thanks - I have tried this a few times but it does not appear to work for me -

     

    When I login to E*Trade, I have two 1099s available to me:

     

    Then, in TurboTax when I sign in to E*Trade to import the data, these are my results:

     

    This information is only for ONE of the two 1099s in my E*Trade, and I have no further option to import the 2nd 1099. i.e. I should have a second 1099-DIV, etc.
