1099 B transactions from financial institution

Anglis
Level 3

I have a client that produced 25 pages of stock sales that show Basis is reported to IRS. Can I just enter the total from summary page or do I have to generated the form 8949 to show these transactions individually? I did read somewhere that we can do this for A and D transactions basis reported.

But I do not want to prepare an incomplete return. Has anyone done this with no letters or repercussions associated with the IRS change on this reporting.

Thank you

You can summarize and send the detail either by attaching a pdf of the summary or mailing the 8453 with the paper summary. In proserios see the second boxed "miscellaneous options" on the Schedule D page. Right click and click on the "about" to read the help page.

If the sales are reported on a 1099B and the basis is reported to the IRS, just enter the totals -------------- the IRS has all of the information they need, you don't need to submit anything to them.
