How do I find my cost basis for employee stock?

Your cost basis in employee stock should be available from your brokerage. Your brokerage should provide a supplemental form on their website where they provided your 1099-B or consolidated 1099. This supplemental form should have a column showing your cost basis.

If you can't find a supplemental form, you can look for previous broker statements or contact your brokerage firm.
