@ mrraney1991 asked: "If my form says "various" for the date purchased column, what should I put in?"

If you are referring to a Form 1099-B for sales of stocks, mutual funds, etc., the date purchased/acquired field (Box 1b) may show the word "various" without quotes. In desktop TurboTax (CD/download) one can merely type the word "various" without quotes. However, in Online TurboTax it's entered a special way through a dropdown menu.

See the image below for the steps to select "various" in the Online version :

I revised my wording in my answer above to more clearly delineate the difference in selecting "various" in the Online TurboTax product versus the desktop product. The image I provided should clearly show how to make the selection of "various" in the Online product, which you appear to be using.
