I don't believe this advice is still valid. I am told that, for 2022, you cannot create a Schedule D (which is what you need to report a capital loss carryover) in the free edition. You have to upgrade to Premier.

DoninGA gave directions for the TurboTax Desktop/Download product Home and Business, and those are still valid.

In TurboTax Online, you are correct, it would require either the Premier or Self-Employed version.
This screen is from the online version, in Wages and Income, on the left menu, then Investments and Savings, and Capital Loss Carryover.
