Ok, you can go pay TurboTax $200 or whatever then. You have to enter in like 3 numbers, total $ bot/total $ sold/$ of wash trades.

I’ll spend 30 minutes, $15 dollars, and my office’s mailroom to send one single 9x13 envelope once a year. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.



Yeah, that $150 is totally worth it for me because until the free software automatically integrates with external portals, TT is actually providing a valued service.


You don't have to submit a printout of every single trade... just totals. Like the parent said, it's like 3-4 boxes you fill out/copy-paste from your exchange paperwork.

You do need to be able to provide substantiated figures if you are audited. Which is easy, you print out the paperwork from your exchange...

Not exactly worth paying for that convenience. You can still eFile too.
