Amend California tax return for capital loss carryover.

I just found out that since 2009, the capital loss carryover is missing in my California tax return.  My Federal tax return has the carryover every year.  So, I need to amend CA return since 2009.  I'm wondering whether the following steps are correct before I start working on it.

1. Amend 2009 CA return.

2. If there is a refund difference, then I need to amend 2010 Fed tax return.

3. Repeat 1 and 2 until last year filed.  

If I have to do #2, do I need to wait for the refund or just assume there is a refund and keep going through each year?
