I got a 1099-K for transactions but made no personal income and can prove it. How do Input my 1099-K and make sure I don't get charged.

It depends. If I assume this was for the sale of personal items you can use the information below to enter your sales.  Keep in mind that losses from personal use items is not allowed to be used against other income so be sure you enter the same cost basis as the selling price. Do not enter the 1099-K, instead follow the step-by-step below. If the income was for something else, please update for further instruction.

 

To enter your sale in TurboTax, follow these steps. 

  1. Open or continue your return.
  2. Navigate to the investment sales section:
    • TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to investment sales. If using this application, make sure it is open
    • TurboTax Desktop: Search for investment sales and then select the Jump to link. 
      • Or Personal Tab > Continue > I'll choose what I work on > Scroll to Investment Income > Select Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other
  3. Answer Yes to the question Did you sell any of these investments in 2024? (or Okay! to Time to kickoff your investments!).
    • If you land on  the Investment sales summary or Your investments and savings screen, select Add More Sales or Add investments.
    • Click this link for more information. Where do I enter Investment Sales?

If you entered the 1099-K, use the information below to delete it. Keep it in your tax records should you need it later.
