Are you saying that you had a capital loss on your 2021 tax return, and you did not carry it over to 2022? You cannot assume that your capital loss carryover would be reduced by $3,000 in 2022. It might be more than $3,000 or less than that. You have to amend your 2022 tax return to include the carryover from 2021 in order to correctly calculate the carryover from 2022 to 2023. You do not have to wait for your 2022 amended return to be processed before you file your 2023 tax return, but you have to at least recalculate the 2022 tax return to make sure you get the correct carryover amount for 2023.
When you enter the capital loss carryover in your 2023 tax return, TurboTax will ask you if you know the carryover amounts. DO NOT select "Yes, I know my capital loss carryover amounts." Select "No, I need help figuring out my capital loss carryover amounts." It will then ask for certain information from your 2022 tax return. Enter the information from your recalculated or amended 2022 tax return, not from the original 2022 tax return that omits the capital loss carryover.
