When you buy an open-market option, you're not responsible for reporting any information on your tax return. However, when you sell an option—or the stock you acquired by exercising the option—you must report the profit or loss on Schedule D of your Form 1040.
You don't report income until you sell the stock. Your overall basis doesn't change as a result of a stock split, but your per share basis changes. You'll need to adjust your basis per share of the stock. For example, you own 100 shares of stock in a corporation with a $15 per share basis for a total basis of $1,500.
In a word: yes. If you sold any investments, your broker will be providing you with a 1099-B. This is the form you'll use to fill in Schedule D on your tax return. The beauty of this is that it's generally plug-and-play.
You must report all 1099-B transactions on Schedule D (Form 1040), Capital Gains and Losses and you may need to use Form 8949, Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets. This is true even if there's no net capital gain subject to tax.
Statutory stock options If your employer grants you a statutory stock option, you generally don't include any amount in your gross income when you receive or exercise the option. However, you may be subject to alternative minimum tax in the year you exercise an ISO.
If you sold some stocks this year, you're probably aware that you will need to include some information on your tax return. What you may not realize, is that you'll need to report every transaction on an IRS Form 8949 in addition to a Schedule D.

401(k) or another workplace retirement plan This can be one of the simplest ways to get started in investing and comes with some major incentives that could benefit you now and in the future.
