    1. I'll choose what I work on
    2. Investment Income
    3. Stock, Mutual Fund, Bonds, Other

    7. Enter Bank

    Hi

    I received a Form 1099-B

    and on it I have values for only Box 1a and Box 5.

    Box 1a is simple but how

    do I enter Box 5 Non-Covered Securities on TurboTax?

    When I access 1099-B on TurboTax I am presented with Box 1a-1e and nothing for Box 5

     

    tk you Jay

    You do not report Box 5 Form 1099-B on your tax return.  To verify follow these steps:

    1. Check the Box for I have other boxes on my 1099‑B to enter
    2. Click on the line What if my 1099-B has other boxes with info?
    3. You will see the following information on your screen.

    "If your 1099-B includes info reported in boxes that aren’t shown here, don’t worry about entering the info. This info doesn’t need to be added to your tax return".
