Your stock sale will be reported on your 2023 income tax return since you sold them on 1/3/2023. You do not have to report anything for the acquisition of your stock.

sales of long positions are reported on a trade date basis. the closing of short sales at a gain, also. but the closing of short sales at a loss are reported on a settlement date basis.
