Did you have a Capital Loss Carryover from 2024? Or should have a loss carrying over to 2026? Why do you think it’s wrong?
You get to first offset the loss against any gains you have each year so that can use more of it up. Then after applying the loss to the current gains if you still have a loss, you can take a max loss of 3,000 (1,500 MFS) per year on your tax return. Turbo Tax does all the calculations for you. Just enter the full prior year carryover amount.
On the income page The 2025 column shows the carryover to 2026 (not your current loss for 2025).
Schedule D doesn't actually show the carryover amount. To find your Capital Loss Carryover amount you need to look at your return schedule D page 2. Line 16 will be your total loss and line 21 should be a max loss of 3,000. The difference between line 16 and 21 is the carryover loss for next year.
There is also a Carryover Worksheet showing the carryover from the prior year and the current amounts. Then there is also the Capital Loss Carry Forward worksheet showing the amount transferring over to next year.
In the Online version you have to save your return with all the worksheet as a pdf file to your computer to see Schedule D and the Capital Loss Carry Over and Carry Forward worksheets.
In the Desktop program you can go to Forms and find it in the list in the left column.
If you have a negative AGI or negative taxable income it will show up on 1040 BUT it won't reduce the carryover to the next year.
