Where are Roth IRA losses put in TurboTax?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
they are not deductible. while all the gains are tax-free when you take a distribution, the same goes for losses - they are 'tax-free' (i.e. not deductible).
I should not muddy the waters but.. there was once a loophole where if you closed out all of a Roth at a loss you could claim a deduction. That was eliminated in the 2018 tax law changes. https://www.kiplinger.com/article/taxes/T046-C000-S001-last-call-for-deducting-roth-ira-losses.html
It was a misc deduction on schedule A. Only an answer to a trivia quiz now.
