Tax free long-term capital gain offsets short-term loss
I had a long-term capital gain of $1,000 in 2024 and a short-term loss of $2000. Since long-term gain of $1,000 falls under the 0% tax bracket, I wouldn't need that offset my short-term. However, Turbotax online automatically offsets that for me which reduces my short-term loss to $1,000. I was supposed to deduct my income by $2,000 but now I can only do $1,000. Is this expected? If not, how can I let turbotax ignore my long-term gain?
