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,

    The gross proceeds should not be -29 - the gross proceeds should equal the amount that you sold all of the crypto currency for before your basis is added in.  It shouldn't be negative.

     

    Something is wrong with the CSV that you've imported.  I suggest deleting it and re-importing it without deleting any columns and seeing if that helps.

    That worked great. I kept removing the columns EasyTxf said shouldn't be there and it imported correctly with the right values.

     

    Thank you so much for your help.  I had spend hours on this and would never have gotten there without your help.

     

    Thanks again.
