Question
1099B form - long term non covered vs non reported (box E or box F) ?
In the form 1099B that I got from my broker, it says the following - "LONG-TERM TRANSACTIONS FOR WHICH BASIS IS AVAILABLE BUT NOT REPORTED TO THE IRS - Report on Form 8949, Part II, with Box E checked."
But when filling the details online, I see 2 options:
Box F = Long term not reported
Box E = Long term not covered
According to the definition above, box F = not reported
but why does the my 1099B form says - "with Box E checked" ??
Which one should I select?
