Resurrecting this thread... so with Wisebanyan, they changed their brokerage in the middle of the year last year which complicates things more. But at the end of the day, I have about $36-37 of losses reported via the 1099-B and 8949 forms. Am I still required to report this or will I get in hot water if I don't?
I noticed that I can enter a summarized total of the 8949 and then "attach the 8949 pdf" later when I go to e-file. Also, I was reading about the 1099-B entries in Taxact, and they seem to indicate that every 1099-B entry will be automatically added into an auto-generated 8949 derived from the 1099-B entries. So it really seems like using the 8949 form attachment would expedite things. I noticed though that if I attach form 8949 classifying short term transactions where cost basis was reported (A), I am unable to add another 8949 under the same category (so it seems this would only work if you have a ton of transactions of the same type and under the same brokerage). In the case of Wisebanyan changing brokerages, it sounds like I'd still have to manually enter the 1099-B entries (but perhaps choosing the brokerage that has fewer transactions recorded).
