Hello, I have a 1099DIV from Merrill Lynch that has amounts on line 2e and 2f

2e section 897 ordinary dividends - $0.27

2f section 890 capital gain - $3.57

The TurboTax Premier Desktop version 1099DIV input screen does not have these 2 fields for me to input these amounts. What do I do? Thank you.

Yes, the information in the link stated that as a United States individual filing your personal tax return, you do not need to enter information reported in boxes 2e and 2f on Form 1099-DIV.

Because they are not needed for an individual tax return, there is no place in TurboTax to enter that information.

Hello I don't quite follow the link. So does it mean that

1. I don't need to input the 2e and 2f amounts on the 1099DIV anywhere on the income tax forms

2. TurboTax software doesn't have any areas to input these numbers ?
