I am attaching the 1099-B but there is a Wash Sale loss disallowed and it won't let me put in the code M.
Ok all. I have a detailed 1099-B and have chosen to attach a PDF to the return to avoid putting in all the individual dated transactions. But I have an issue. There is a Wash Sale disallowed and when I try to enter that amount on the 1099 B worksheet it tells me I can't use the code M...attaching summary. I am thinking I should just adjust the amount of the Cost Basis (or the proceeds?) to reflect that gain so the client pays the tax on it??
And.... after filling in the 1099-B worksheet 2 of the grouped entries say BYPASS 8949. They are coded A and D (basis reported) on the 8949 type...so I assume that means the IRS doesn't need to see it on form 8949. BTW...the wash sale is on the code A (short term reported).
And this is the first stock sales I have had this year. It took me forever to figure out the new format for adding them in ProSeries....just sayin!
