Hello, in 2024 I had short-term and long-term cost basis that weren't reported to the IRS on my Form 1099-B for Charles Schwab. Additionally, I sold a rental property and wasn't issued a 1099-S since the sale price was under $500,000.
TurboTax is saying I need to print Form 8453 and attach Form 8949 or an acceptable continuation sheet for Schedule D.
Do I include my 1099-B statement showing the cost basis not reported to the IRS? For the rental property, do I include the escrow settlement statement and any supporting documents/calculations that went into calculating the realized gains?
Many thanks!
Yes, you will want to include a copy of you 1099-B with the 8453. You do not have to include the escrow or other documents related to the sale of the rental property- the IRS is looking for the itemized line items if you used a summary for the stock sales.
See E-file.
Thank you for the response. That makes sense since I used the summary feature to report the gains/losses of my stock sales. It's only 3-4 stocks that had value of less than $1,000 so should be easy to itemized.
The Form 8949 also list out my sale of the rental property. So I do not need to provide additional documents since it's technically itemized when I entered the sale of the property correct? Thanks.
No, you don't need to document the rental property sale unless TurboTax instructed you to do so.
