How do I report Section 897 capital gain (box 2f on my 1099-DIV)? TurboTax does not have box 2f option.

Only RICs and REITs should complete boxes 2e and 2f.

Thanks Mike.

I have the same problem.  Can't input amount showing in 2f of my 1099div

You probably don't have to enter the amount in Box 2f.  Box 2a already includes the amount entered in Box 2f.   To follow-up on the comments from @Mike9241, only RICs and REITS need to complete Box 2f.  The instructions for Form 1099-DIV provides the following about Box 2f:

• Only RICs and REITs should complete boxes 2e and 2f.  Boxes 2e and 2f do not need to be completed for recipients that are U.S. individuals.
