Turbotax doesn't import etrade 1099 although it's there

You are probably trying to import too soon.  Usually financial institutions have the information online for you to view or print earlier than they have it ready for importing into the tax software.  It is often about mid-February before you can import 1099R's, 1099B's , etc.   

If you don't want to wait for Feb 12, you can choose to "enter a different way" and enter the Sales section totals from the 1099-Consolidated form you have. I know it sounds scary, but rest assured that TurboTax will guide you along the way and you don't have to enter each transaction. 

To get back to the investment income section to enter your 1099-B sales totals, follow the steps below. 

Here's where you enter or import your 1099-B in TurboTax:

1. Open (continue) your return, if you haven't already
2. Locate the search bar. Search for 1099-B, then select the Jump to link in the search results
3. Select Okay! on the screen Time to kick off your investments! OR Yes on the screen Did you sell any of these investments? then Continue
   • If you see Your investments and savings or Your investment sales summary, select Add investments or Add more sales
4. When you reach Let's import your tax info, choose how you want to enter your 1099-B:
   • To import your form, select your brokerage or financial institution from the list. Enter your sign-in credentials for your account, then select Get my form
   • If you want to enter your 1099-B manually, select Enter a different way, then select your investment type on the next screen
5. On the following screens, answer the questions about your 1099-B
6. When you reach the Review your sales screen, the form you just entered should be listed
   • If you need to add another 1099-B, select Add another sale. Otherwise, Continue

If you can wait, then follow xmasbaby0 instructions

Thank you.

It seems like Turbotax hardcoded the import date into its software, it even didn't ask my etrade login credentials before telling me "Feb 12".

I will wait.

Today is the 13th of Feb and I'm getting the "there isn't any tax related info to import" message even though it's allowing me to enter my log in information.  Import was supposed to be available today, but it appears to still not be working.  

If the import is not working, please follow the instructions here to manually enter the 1099. @scfiler 

Manually isn't an option when there are 50+ stock sale entries  ; )

Whether you have 50+ or hundreds of stock transactions reported on your Form 1099-B, you can manually enter them all in no more than six entries.  Simply follow the instructions provided by SantinoD above and enter the totals for each category - there are only six, and there's a good chance you have less than that.  

@webster2004 Just because you can see the form online, doesn't mean that the broker has made it available for download yet.   I recommend you give it a few days and try again.
