Is there any way to attach (instead of physically mail in) my statement for 8949?

I have several Box E and adjusted transactions, so I am unable to summarize without attaching the document, and too many to input individually. I read that TaxAct and some other e-file preparers allow the user to attach the pdf statement with their. Is this at all possible with TurboTax?

TurboTax does not support the attachment of PDF files to a personal return.

Turbo tax is making me attach a pdf for my 1099-b and repeatedly getting rejected by IRS.

Please see the link below.  You will need to mail in your Form 8949 only if you are prompted to.  Do not attach the forms to your tax return that is being submitted to electronic filing.

 

Do I need to mail in Form 8949?

 

I would recommend removing the attachment and then trying to electronic file again. 

 

If you are still having issues, you will need to switch to mailing your return in order to file them on time.

 

Switch from E-file to mail
