This will be in the worksheets. You will want to print all government forms and worksheets.

 

To access your tax returns (current or prior year) you will sign into the TurboTax website with the user ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

 

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on Download/print return (PDF)

 

As an alternative for current year return, when you sign onto your online account and land on the Tax Home web page, scroll down and click on Add a State (You will not really be adding a state). 

 

This will take you back in to the 2024 online tax return.

 

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen.  Find the Print Center and choose the year you want to print.  If you want your full return including worksheets, choose the option Include government and TurboTax worksheets.

 

In TurboTax Online, follow these steps to print/view your return and all of the informational worksheets after you have filed:

 

  1. Sign in to TurboTax
  2. Scroll down to Your Tax Returns & Documents
  3. Select 2024 and then Add a State (You aren't actually adding a State but this gets you back into the Print Center)
  4. From the left panel Select Tax Tools, scroll down a little and select Print Center
  5. Select Print, save or preview this year's return
  6. Select the 2024 Federal and/or State return box
  7. Choose to Include TurboTax and government worksheets
  8. Select View or Print Forms

What kind of loss are you looking for? Capital loss carryover? Net operating loss carryforward? Something else?


If you properly carried over capital losses from year to year, the capital loss carryover for the current year (from 2023 to 2024) includes the cumulative losses for all previous years. The capital loss carryover is on Schedule D line 6 (short-term) and line 14 (long-term). The amounts on Schedule D lines 6 and 14 come directly from the Capital Loss Carryover Worksheet.
