1. What do I report from the 1099B? Do these amounts flow into a form 8949?

2.  In the documents our broker provided, there is a listing of Fees & Expenses. Are any of these deductible?

Let me know, please.

Thanks!

    Yes, the amounts will flow to the Form 8949 once the entries are made for the Form 1099-B. TurboTax will do this for you automatically.

    Yes, the fees and expenses can be used to reduce gain IF box 6 on your form has a check mark in 'Gross proceeds'.  If 'Net Proceeds' is checked then the fees have already been used to reduce the Proceeds in box 1d.

    In response to your reply on the 1099 (I meant 1099-DIV), the issuer provides a summary document. Number 6 does not have a place for Gross Proceeds. There is a place for an amount and it is $0.

    The prior answer was for form 1099B for Sales.  If you have a 1099 Div just enter it.  Do not enter zeros.  There would not be a gross proceeds for dividends.  Dividends go on Schedule B if they are more than $1,500.
