I have a 9 digit input for proceeds and cost basis for my 1099-B, but the online site has an 8 digit limit.

Any idea how to work around this?

    Hello Dbayer,

    In situations like yours, you will need to divide up your 1009-B summary and enter several summaries. For example, one day trader had to divide his summary into 7 smaller summaries to enter his total as 7 subtotals.
