thanks for your response. really odd it's not a feature in the online version...
you note "Once you make this election by filing your return, you can't change it without IRS permission. "
what does this mean? It's a distinction that carries forward tied to me every year going forward? I guess I don't quite understand how it works
but I did have a net capital loss for 2022, so it may make sense to take the positive dividend gain and apply it to the loss balance...
