Did you get a 1099B for something? If you got one you have to enter it. Interest and dividends come on a 1099 INT or 1099 Div. Do you have a 1099B that transferred over from last year? You can delete it if you don't have one for this year.

Sometimes a broker will sell assets to cover fees. Did you actually receive a 1099-B?

Still have questions?
