I decided to amend the 2021 return, but that didn't go well. TT left some blanks in the carryover loss worksheet for 2018-2020, and when I try to correct them it won't accept my corrections. It just keeps throwing error messages. If I put in numbers that I'm sure are incorrect, it's happy. So I can submit an amended return that I'm sure is wrong, or leave it alone and see if the IRS flags it. It's just a worksheet, so does it matter?
Right now I'm thinking that I'll have to re-create 2021 and not amend. That way the numbers will transfer correctly to 2022. The property sold on 1-14-22. If it had fallen through, would we have rented it again? Maybe.
Once the 2021 re-creation is done, I can compare the carryover worksheets and figure out how to proceed.
I usually don't have trouble following the path of numbers from one form to the next , but the carryover loss stuff has always been the area I have trouble with. And of course, that's where things went wrong.
