It depends on whether the stock was sold. Once it is sold, then the costs can be deducted. To do this in TurboTax,

  • From the Wages & Income section, scroll down to Investment Income and select Show More 
  • Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other (1099-B) and Start
  • Follow through the rest of the interview to enter your details
