If your LLC taxed as a partnership had losses in 2021 and 2022, then you should have received a Form K-1 for each year that showed the loss.  Unless it was a passive loss, each year that loss would have offset other income reported on your tax return or created a Net Operating Loss.  If it created an NOL you should have prepared an NOL Worksheet to show to include with your tax return to show the amount you were carrying forward.     If you are referring to an NOL for 2021 and 202, you will need to file amended returns for 2021, 2022, and 2023 to show your NOL Carry Forward each year and to deduct the usable NOL on the 2023 return.

Generally, if you don't have enough withheld in taxes as you earn income throughout the year, then you could still be subject to an underpayment penalty.  I recommend updating your W-4 withholding statement with your employer to ensure you have enough withheld from your paychecks to avoid the penalty in the future.   Also see why am I getting an underpayment penalty for more details.

I had this too, in TurboTax 2024 desktop on Mac. For me it was:   1. Asked for signature date, put it in 2. TurboTax says it's invalid, and I need to correct. I try just clicking continue, since it's already in the required range. 3. TurboTax still says it's invalid. I click continue a second time, and this time it's accepted.   I didn't change the date in the field at all, I just clicked continue twice and it worked the second time.

Are you asking about a tax penalty on 1040 line 38? It is not about 2023 or not paying estimates. And the penalty is just an estimate so it is possible for the IRS to recalculate it and send you a refund or a bill for more. If you do not pay in enough tax from withholding and estimates, you may have to pay a penalty for underpayment of estimated tax. The penalty is an Estimated amount. Even if you are getting a refund you can still owe a penalty for not paying in evenly during the year. Generally, most taxpayers will avoid this penalty if they owe less than $1,000 in tax after subtracting their withholdings and credits, or if they paid at least 90% of the tax for the current year, or 100% of the tax shown on the return for the prior year, whichever is smaller. It is included in your tax due or reduces your refund. Have you filed yet?  If you get a penalty on 1040 line 38, you might be able to eliminate it or at least reduce it.

Your net capital gain/loss is calculated by subtracting your capital losses from your capital gains (Schedule D).   If you have a net capital loss, you can deduct up to $3,000 per year as a capital loss.  Losses beyond that amount can be deducted on future returns as a capital loss carryover until the loss is used up.   How is a capital gain or loss calculated? You can't choose which tax years to apply your carryover to. Carryovers from this year's return must be applied to next year's.
