I use Fidelity Inv and download my 1099s.
I went through the dividend part fine (which still shows a "start button") and when I try to "update" the sales part it gives me the looks like .." message and "Please revisit last topic". Well not sure what "last topic" is, but I went back to Dividend and all looks well.
This may be due to a bug involving this:
I originally had this all filed out correctly and then Fidelity sent me a "corrected" 1099 in the last few days.
So I went into the program, deleted the account under Dividend which was going to be replaced.
I cannot recall where it was gone at the time from Sales, but I believe so.
I then downloaded JUST the account (which had two pieces in the download, not labeled as such but obvious from the dollar amounts).
I went back to the Dividend part and answered all the questions, then Done, then tried to go to the Sales part and that is when I received the error which I cannot get past.
I have put hours in the whole form already and will be quite disturbed if I have to start all over again, because everything was completed before I got the corrected 1099.
