How do I calculate the adjustment if I need to?

If you need to calculate the capital loss adjustment, you will need to complete the Lines 5a-5d - Net Gains and Losses Worksheet in the 2013 Form 8960 instructions. This adjustment must then be made going forward even if you are not subject to NIIT in a particular year. After completing the Lines 5a-5d - Net Gains and Losses Worksheet for 2013, enter the amount from line 2h of the prior year worksheet here. Enter the amount as a negative in TurboTax.
