Review the form 8582 (and it's worksheet) carefully to see why your losses are limited ... https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8582.pdf

In your other post you indicated you were a Real Estate Professional.  If that is the case, verify that you entered that correctly in the program.

 

If you are NOT a Real Estate Professional, is your total income over $100,000?  Over $150,000?  Are you filing as Married Filing Separately?

 

Did you "Materially Participate" in each rental?

 

Did you use any of the rentals for personal use (and entered personal days)?
