How do i import my csv file from my crypto taxes done by koinly that was generated?
It is best to upload the .csv file to your desktop first. Then, save a new copy to change the columns if necessary to match TurboTax before importing.
The columns should be:
- Service name (examples: Coinbase)
- Asset name (examples: Bitcoin, Ethereum)
- Date of purchase
- Cost basis
- Date of sale
- Sale proceeds
Once you have edited the .CSV file to match this format, return to TurboTax.
Inside TurboTax Online from the search box, entercryptocurrency. Select theJump tolink in the search results and follow the prompts.
- AtLet's get your cryptocurrency info, select any of the tiles andContinue.
- You must select one of the tilesin order to get to the upload screen. Otherwise, enter each transaction individually.
- AtLet's add your cryptocurrency transactions, drag and drop your CSV file.
For more information, see: How do I report Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency as a capital gain?
However, if you aremining cryptocurrency, then report this as self-employed income.

--------------------------------
What you posted above is fine and dandy if using online "cloud" based TT, however you should have mentioned that the TT CD/Download versions do not have the "Let's get your cryptocurrency info" option. At least they do not exist on my 2109 and 2020 TT premier CD/Desktop versions so I had to enter everything manually.
Some guidance on the least painful way to do things using the Desktop versions of TT would be helpful.

How do i import my csv file from my crypto taxes done by koinly that was generated?
Yes, you are correct, the directions are for TurboTax Online which has a dedicated cryptocurrency section. In TurboTax Online, it is common to import a large number of transactions using the .CSV file format.
Yes, there is a way to import in TurboTax CD/Download, as well.
To import using TurboTax CD/Download, .TXF can be used instead. To import a .TXF,follow these steps:
- Go toFilein the upper left corner in the black menu ribbon menu.
- Hover overImportand then selectFrom Accounting Software.
- AtChoosea Program To Import From, selectOther Financial Software (TXF file)andContinue.
- Follow through the rest of the interview. For more support, see:How do I import from the .txf file?
Below are a list of aggregator options if that would be useful for the future:
Using .TXF:
If the details are entered in summary form, thenwithin three days of submitting your tax return, sendForm 8453with your cost basis details from your aggregator service. TurboTax will provide instructions.

I used Koinly but when I use the edit option to look at a transaction (to understand if its taxable - thought that would also have been decided for me) the box that pops up says the service was CryptoTraderTax. Why is that happening ?

Can I not upload my kraken and coinbase csv. files in TurboTax 2021 Home & Business? I thought I bought the version that does everything. Nowhere is it allowing me to import these files. Thanks

If desktop TurboTax still doesn't support .CSV import there is a good thread on how to use the EasyTXF.com website to do it here:https://www.reddit.com/r/hrblock/comments/suf9l3/does_hr_block_support_any_method_of_entering/ You'll need to do a little manual adjustment of the outputed TXF file to get the ST and LT transactions into the right "boxes"
