How do I import my 1099-B from Schwab's EAC?

I have RSU stock sales from my company that are handled by Schwab's Equity Awards Center (EAC).  All movement of the RSUs happen through Schwab's EAC, including the 1099-B tax forms.  Attempting to import my EAC 1099-B from Schwab results in just the 1099-INT and direct deposit forms from the non-EAC section of Schwab.  Has anyone figured out how to import this document?

"The Equity Award Center does not currently have the functionality to export data to external financial programs, such as TurboTax, Quicken, etc.  You will need to manually enter your trades.

 

We recognize that our clients want this feature, and we are working on adding it to the EAC."
- Schwab, 2016-03-01


So this is a problem on Schwab's end.  I encourage you to complain.  This is ridiculous.


You *can* get the EAC / ESPP / RSU etc. 1099-B from their website:  

https://eac.schwab.com/

Click "My Equity Awards"

Click "History & Statements"

Click "Statements & Reports"

Click "Tax Forms"

I confirmed yesterday, they still haven't implemented this feature. Now I have to manually enter 100+ share sells from the 1099-B manually. 😩 At least the customer support specialist understood my pain and commiserated with me a moment.

This feature really needs to be supported! (Looking at you, Schwab!)

This is not true. This is a Quicken problem. Personal Capital has absolutely no problem connecting to my Equity Award Center and pulls in all transactions perfectly.

This is exactly the issue I'm seeing now.  Could someone from Intuit comment on whether import from Schwab EAC is going to be supported for this tax year?

Same here, My 1099-B is imported but shows empty. It also didn't import DIV for my "Employer Sponsored Accounts", only personal account!

For me it just imported the 1099-INT from my individual account, which for me is just a stepping stone to get sold shares to my bank account.  I don't get any 1099-B, even though the PDF is there and has been there for a few days.  I just tried importing again today, and again just the individual account 1099-INT shows up.

That is a question that only Schwab can answer   TurboTax has no control over what Schwab makes available for import.

try rsulove.com service or schwab1099b.com service. They charge flat fee 4.99$


There is no charge from TurboTax or Schwab for imports.    That appears to be on untrusted scam website  (probably to try to steal your Schwab login and password to clean out your account.)

CAUTION:

I'd be wary and suspicious of the website URLs posted by new user "nhe150" above and in other similar threads.   This could be spam, and for all we know, they could be dangerous sites to steal information or plant malware.    I've asked a Moderator to look it into it.

FYI, you may not need to manually enter every transaction.  turbotax help says:

 

Should I summarize my sales?

If you have sales identified on your statement as Box A or Box D sales, and they don't include any adjustments to the gain/loss (e.g. a Disallowed Wash Sale amount), then you should simply enter a summary for these sales. You'll only need to enter the total sales proceeds, total cost basis, and sales category.

I'm having this issue in 2022. Schwab INT and DIV automatically imported perfectly; my 1099-B from RSU/ESPP sales never showed up. The only account Turbo Tax seems aware of is the brokerage account. :( I suspect they aren't ever going to prioritize fixing this if it's been half a decade and it's still unsolved.

@grantericstrong  Looks like you get a lot of rewards; at least that's good 🙂

 Think of some one who gets but one reward and has to file much less. Which would you choose.

I am dealing with this pain for 10 years. Schwab is a joke. I wish my employer moved away from them.

Holy cow, this is 2025, this still doesn't work.
