Please see Instructions on where to make those Entries in your Return:


  • For the 1099 b Entry
  • You'll enter this under the Federal Taxes tab (or Personal, if working in TurboTax Self-Employed/Home & Business), then select Wages & Income, then Investment Income, then Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other.  Follow the prompts to enter the 1099-B information.  This will require an upgrade to TurboTax Premier online, since a Schedule D will be prepared.

and for the 1099 Div


Detailed Instructions:

  1. With your tax return open, search for 1099-DIV or 1099DIV (lower-case works also) and then click or tap the "Jump to" link in your search results.
  2. Answer Yes to Did you receive any dividend income?
  3. Choose your bank or brokerage from the list to import your 1099-DIV and click/tap Continue or manually enter your 1099-DIV  by clicking/tapping I'll type it in myself.
  4. Follow the on screen instructions to enter your 1099-DIV.

Don't combine the amounts from 2 or more 1099-DIV forms if they're from the same payer. Instead, enter additional 1099-DIVs individually by answering Yes to Do you have any more dividend income from somewhere else which appears a few screens down the road.

If you are entering a second 1099-DIV, simply click/tap on Add Another Broker or Payer and follow the same steps above.


I hope this helps answer your questions!
