Rental property QBI carryforward from 2023 & 2022

[JASTO]

Hi, I know a lot of people have questions about this...   here's mine.  I have a triplex, rent out 2 apartments & live in one.  I do a lot of my own work so qualify for QBI.   

I'm using a MAC for the first time, in 2024, but I was able to put the 2023  file on a thumb drive and xfer to MAC...   everything appears to have flowed through to the MAC TT, including depreciation schedule for several items.

I had QBI losses in 2022 & 2023 (total - 12,725), profit in 2024. (+6,509)

in TT 2024:

Form 8995 reflects the above numbers, and shows -6215 carryforward (presumably this goes against  2025, if I again have positive income from this property).

The problem is that  the $6509 of previous years' loss does not wipe out the current year's income--  shouldn't it?   

Form 8995.     line 1.  QBI income = 6509

                             line 3 carryforward =  -12725

                           line 15 QBI decuction = 1.         (from an REIT in a mutual fund I think)

                        line 16      QBI carryforward = -6215

But schedule 1 shows line 5.  rental RE. = +6509         so that's what's going to 1040 line 8

 1040 line 13.  shows 1.  

It seems to me that the positive income I had this year on the house, should be wiped out by part of the carry forward loss, and the remainder carry to subsequent year(s)....  but I don't see what the mechanism is for that??

note, I have miscl. pension, SS, IRA , div.&  interest income, less than $40k

also, because I've done my own taxes forever, I get the cheapest TurboTax I can find, and ignore a lot of the question part and often switch to forms directly to enter info.   I've used TT for many years, and have used both Deluxe and Premier in the past.     Thanks for any advice...

You may need to confirm any carryover for regular tax was correctly transferred from your prior year return. If you had only QBI carryovers, then the amount Schedule 1 is correct.

To confirm the prior year carryovers, go to Forms Mode and open Schedule E Worksheet for this rental property.

1. Scroll down below the QBI section to Carryovers to 2024 Smart Worksheet.
2. Confirm the amount on Line G for Regular Tax is correct.
3. Scroll down further to the lines for Disallowed Passive Losses by Year and Type.
4. Confirm that any remaining carryovers appear on the correct line for the year when the carryover was first recorded.
   (You may need to compare this worksheet to the one from your prior year return.)
