Proseries 1040 sale of stock

I have a client that sold the stock they held in their retirement plan, they were issued a 1099b.  Then they retired and rolled the entire plan over to their Financial Advisor.  They received the 1099b showing the entire sales price, then received a 1099r for the same amount.  How do I enter the 1099b information so it is not taxable?

Stock sales in a qualified retirement plan are not subject to 1099-B reporting. If that's what happened, client needs to get the 1099-B corrected to -0-.

 

Are you sure you are looking at the 1099-B correctly? Maybe it is for personal holdings. Maybe a nonqualified deferred comp plan.

I think you need some clarity from that client on "retirement Plan" and "retirement Account." These are not synonyms.
