permanent loss on wash sale due to IRA repurchase

Discussion in 'Taxes and Accounting' started by fusiforme, Mar 9, 2018.

  1. I have a permanent loss of two wash sales due to a repurchase of the same security in my IRA account. Had I understood the tax ramifications of the IRA repurchase I would not have done it, but I learned too late, so now I need to deal with it to make sure cost basis is reported correctly on Turbotax.

    It seems like this should be simple enough since the amount I need to add to the cost basis to ensure that I pay the correct amount of tax is simply the amount of the wash sale itself.

    The issue is I am not sure where/how to add this amount in Turbotax.

    If you have dealt with this situation in the past what did you do?

    Thanks.
