Wash Sale Deferred due to not closing the trade and a stock buy in Jan 2024

TD Ameritrade released the 1099B  yesterday.  When do they release the detailed summary and finalize the 8949?

 

I had 4 stocks with wash sales that were noted under wash sale loss disallowed.  One of those 4 was deferred.

 

How can I tell if TD Ameritrade made the adjustment for the deferral stock and how do I enter it?  I want to make sure I don't take the the loss?  Maybe I'm thinking into to it to much but don't understand the difference between a wash sale and deferral wash sale and where reported in turbo tax. 

 

Way too many people have this problem.  Hopefully someone from Turbo tax will explain.

    when you get your January statement look at the cost shown for the deferral stock. it should be what you paid plus the wash sale deferred.

    "difference between a wash sale and deferral wash sale "

     

    there is no such thing as a deferral wash sale.

    If you have a wash some or all of the loss is denied.

     

    the triggering shares you bought within the window that caused you to have a wash sale have their basis adjusted.

    eventually , in most cases you will get that loss on your Schedule D later.

    TD Ameritrade says:

    "Most 1099s will post by 2/15/2024 "

     

    The broker must wait to see if any activity in January triggers a wash on a sale placed in December.
