when you sell your stock options, you must report any income gains or losses resulting from the sale on your federal tax returns.You need to report short-term capital gains or losses on 1040. If you bought stock options and sold them less than one year later, this is a STCG or loss. You will be using Part 1 of the Sch D/ 8949.You need to gather your stock option information so you can input the correct information by getting your 1099-B and information relating to the stock option purchase date, sale date, purchase price and sale price.
