Why E*TRADE 1099-Bs Don't Import Cleanly Into TurboTax
Every broker formats their 1099-B differently. Here's what trips up TurboTax users with E*TRADE statements.
E*TRADE 1099-Bs (now under Morgan Stanley) include both retail and ESPP/RSU lots, each with different cost-basis rules.
ESPP disqualifying dispositions need cost basis adjustments not shown on the 1099-B itself.
Multi-page tables continue across pages without repeating headers, which breaks naive PDF extractors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this work for E*TRADE?
Yes. Our AI extractor reads every text-based 1099-B PDF from E*TRADE, including consolidated statements with multiple sections, and outputs a TXF file formatted for TurboTax.
How is this different from TurboTax's built-in E*TRADE import?
Direct broker imports often fail with 100+ transactions, miss wash sale adjustments, or refuse to load consolidated statements. We bypass that by reading the PDF directly and producing a clean TXF file.
Is my data secure?
Your PDF is processed in memory and immediately deleted. The extracted text is sent to our AI service over an encrypted connection. No files or financial data are stored after your session ends.
What does it cost?
The CSV preview is free for your first 3 uploads each month. Unlocking the TXF download for TurboTax is $4.99 per conversion — no subscription required.
What about wash sales and adjusted cost basis?
We extract wash sale loss disallowed amounts and adjusted cost basis exactly as reported on your E*TRADE 1099-B. The output file preserves these adjustments so TurboTax handles Form 8949 correctly.
