Your 1099-DA shows proceeds. It does not show what you paid.

Brokers now report your crypto sales to the IRS on Form 1099-DA, often with missing or zero cost basis. If your return does not reconcile to the form, the IRS computer will notice before you do.

WHO DOES THE WORK

Prepared in Skokie by people who know what the IRS looks for

Your return is prepared by the Gordon Tax team in Skokie, Illinois. Gordon Tax, LLC was founded by Andrew Gordon, a tax attorney and CPA, and has focused on crypto tax since 2014.

What to have ready

Every 1099-DA you received, exports from the same exchanges, and wallet addresses for transferred coins.

Frequently asked questions

Brokers only know what happened on their platform. Coins you transferred in arrive with no basis, so the form reports proceeds against zero.

No. You owe tax on gain, which is proceeds minus what you paid. The reconciliation establishes that number.

We prepare an amended return.

SCHEDULE A CONFIDENTIAL CONSULTATION

Tell us what you have. We will tell you what applies and what it costs.
