I cannot get a form 1099S to come up for the sale of a second home All my information keeps going to a 1099B worksheet even though I need to report a 1099S

[1befuddled]

I keep saying I didn't get a 1099B and checking the box for a sale of a second home.  I don't know what to do any more and am very  frustrated.

It's called a 1099-B Worksheet, but it's used for all Investment sales in TurboTax. Note that line 2 of the worksheet has a check if you didn't receive a 1099-B.

You don't enter your 1099S directly into TurboTax; you enter the information from it to calculate your gain or loss. The calculation will go to the Form 1099-B Worksheet, then transferred to Schedule D and Form 8949. The "1099-B Worksheet" isn't a form that is filed with your tax return. It's a calculation worksheet for your records.

That explains it very well.  Thank you very much.

So now it's 2020 taxes, I purchased TT 2020 Deluxe from 3rd party.  I also have a 1099-S (sale of real estate, inherited). I found these directions on your help site.  This works very well and easy on the "on-line" version which requires TT Premiere as I completed online, easy 100% correctly.  BUT the CD/Download version is different, after upgrading to Premiere, it's still the same crap with 1099-B, nothing like the on-line version the 100% correct, 100% accurate.  WHY is the CD/Download and online versions even different?  Very deceiving.

Here's what I'm looking for:

1.  a "service code" to finish the online federal taxes (not paying another $70, sorry).
2.  or at least my $30 refunded for Premiere upgrade, as I could do this less than accurate way with Deluxe.

@AshleyLO Sorry, I'm not calling a "Salesforce.com flunky" again. It took her getting help and me 20min on hold to have her send me this link.  She was more worried that i was trying to scam her, than help me. this is why i linked receipts.

I've been though both ways of doing this and really doing need any help completing my task.  I feel there are two ways to do this, the 100% correct way, and the half baked way.  I feel like i overpaid to do lame way.
