As indicated by Dunk4, I have found that it auto populated in the Fed question form when a Loss value is entered in the CA state Loss Carryover form. A problem occurs when there was a Fed carryover but not a CA state carryover for the previous year. In this case, the California Capital Loss Carryover Worksheet is not generated for the previous year and you left confused as to what to do, because there is no CA carryover amount to enter and TurboTax want's a value. I finally entered zero and everything seemed happy. On previous years when a California Capital Loss Carryover Worksheet was created, I think the form's value from line 8 was auto populated.
