Thanks for the reply -
Understand what you're getting at, but then CA should leave AGI alone. But it does not.
On Sch CA Line 4, column C, it adds back the capital loss. This amount is never subtracted anywhere else.
When the final calculations are done on line 27, my CA AGI now has this capital loss rolled back into it and transfers to line 17.
Either I need to be able to enter this back in manually (which scares me), or it's a programming glitch. The value is getting pulled out because of some tax rule (like limits on LTCG losses for CA) but not being transferred to the right category.
