Get your taxes done using TurboTax

We've been able to take the passive losses


 

Let's back up a bit.  Did you "Materially Participate" in the short-term rental?   I don't know your circumstances, but unless you have a management company handling, it, I suspect you did Materially Participate in it.

If you did Materially Participate in it, any losses would have been non-passive and should have already been used (there would not be any carryover).  I suspect you may need to amend your prior tax return(s) to claim that non-passive loss (although I don't think TurboTax is really set up for that well, which may be why you were not aware of it).

In the event you did NOT "Materially Participate" in the rental, was it attempted to be rented this year (are you talking about 2024?)?
