2019 amended 8829 Carryforward to 2020 8829 not working
I am amending my 2019 taxes in order to establish a business expense carryforward on form 8829. I already filed my 2020 taxes and did report losses on 8829 (which will be carried forward to 2021), but at that point I had not filed my 2019 amendment so the 2020 did not show any carryforwards. I am now trying to amend my 2020 so that I can show carryforward losses on lines 25 and 31 of form 8829. This way I will be able to use both the 2019 and 2020 losses in 2021.
Unfortunately, TurboTax does NOT carryforward 2019 amended info to my 2020 taxes, and there seems to be no way to manually enter my 2019 carryforwards on the 2020 form 8829.
I suppose if there was a manual entry option, I could just add the 2019 losses on my 2021 tax return, but technically my 2020 return would not be correct. Any advice on how to make the adjustments for 2020? (Or should I wait and hope to be able to simple do it on the 2021 return?)
