My tax return and form 6781
On form 6781, I report my profits on stock index options. These profits are both realized and unrealized. Since these options are 1256, I must pay tax on my unrealized gains.
Both realized and unrealized gains are included on my lines 8 and 9. However, I am reporting unrealized gains on line 14. These gains are already included on lines 8 and 9. I do not want to report the gain twice. I do not think I am. Am I? As far as I can tell, line 14 on form 6781 is not an input to any other form.
My tax return was generated using Turbo Tax.
