Tom,

Kaye probably can't say this, being sworn to uphold the Constitution and the Internal Revenue Code etc., but I'm not a lawyer or accountant so nobody keeps an eye on me.

If there are no tax consequences, ignore the wash sale rule and just report it the easier way. Why on earth would the IRS challenge you? If there is no tax due, why would they bother? And what could they do to you? If there are no taxes due, they can't collect any penalties or interest either.

Maybe Kaye can't advocate this position, but can you confirm the consequences? Are there any obscure IRS penalties for paying the right amount of taxes with a wrong filing?
