Personal Investments • What did I do wrong to trigger the wash sales?

Look at your September 19th ITOT purchases.

First consider the lot of 400 shares. Paid $39070.00. Basis on 1099-B: $39070.00, but $565.86 is disallowed.

Now consider the lot of 363 shares. Paid $35456.10 according to your transactions, so original basis: $35456.10. Adjusted basis on 1099-B: $36020.85. So the adjustment was $564.75.

Finally consider the lot of 0.715 shares. Paid $69.83 per transactions, so original basis: $69.83. Adjusted basis on 1099-B: $70.94. So the adjustment was $1.11.

$564.75 + $1.11 = $565.86.

That is: according to your 1099-B, your disallowed loss has correctly been added to the basis of those other two lots, and that is the correct handling of things for tax purposes. By this accounting, you had a wash sale but in the end it is irrelevant to your tax bill.
