Convert a 1099-DA to TXF for TurboTax Desktop

in development

TurboTax Desktop imports TXF files, not PDFs — so the 1099-DA in your inbox can’t go straight in, even though the IRS already has the proceeds. This converter is planned to read the form and emit a spec-valid TXF (V042, Form 8949 records) that TurboTax Desktop, TaxAct, and H&R Block accept.

Status: planned — it depends on the server-side PDF extractor. The TXF writer itself is already live and tested.

Why this page exists

FAQ

Does TurboTax Online accept TXF?

No. TXF imports into the Desktop (CD/download) editions of TurboTax, plus TaxAct and H&R Block. TurboTax Online uses its own crypto import flow — a TXF file won't upload there.

Will cost basis carry into the TXF?

Whatever the form prints carries over. For 2025 1099-DAs that’s usually proceeds only, so basis fields emit blank per the TXF spec and your software flags them for entry — numbers are never invented.

What if the form has no acquisition date?

The record emits “Various” for date acquired, which the TXF spec allows. Holding-period classification happens in your tax software after import.

When will it be available?

It's in the adapter queue — the page goes live once its remaining adapter ships, verified against a real export. Until then it stays marked planned and out of search indexes.
