If you had Passive Carryover Losses you were unable to deduct previously, those will be added to the Loss on the Sale of your Rental Property.

I sold a rental property at a capital loss. TurboTax deducted the loss on Form 4797 from other passive incomes = OK, full amount of the loss is deducted this year (not limited) because I sold the property. But TurboTax also added the full amount of the loss to Schedule D increasing my carryforward losses to be deducted in future years. Hence it appears that there is a glitch in the TurboTax software that is deducting my loss twice-the full amount this year and in carryforward for future years. Does TurboTax a customer support where I can report the problem?
