I am trying to upload a Coinbase csv file with my crypto transactions into TurboTax Premier on a Windows computer.  The instructions say Search "cryptocurrency" in TT, then select "jump to cryptocurrency".  When I search "cryptocurrency" in the Search box, the jump to option is not shown. 

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Bob P

    Thanks so much for your answer. Unfortunately, the options you note are not shown on my TT.  I am using the desktop version of TT Premier for 2022.  It looks like your instructions are for the online version.  For example, there is no Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other options. 

    Suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Hi James:

    That worked great.  All my Coinbase transactions were imported!  

    However, I am still seeing a problem.  After going thru the TT prompts, I get a screen showing the results for my Coinbase account showing the Gross Proceeds as -29K, which is correct, and the Gain/Loss as -72K which is not correct.  Seems like both should be the -29K loss.  

    Thoughts?

     

    Thanks again,

    Bob

     


    Also, FYI, before importing, I deleted the columns in the Coinbase csv file except the six columns that the Easytxf instructions said should be the only ones there.
