Q. Will the capital gains loss in 2020 automatically roll into 2021 so I can claim another $3000 deduction?

A. Yes. To verify, look at line 14 of Schedule D (long term carry over) and /or line 6 (short term).

It SHOULD carry-over, but you should always check and verify.

Under Business, scroll down to "Less Common Business Situations" and select Net Operating Loss/QBI Carryforward Loss
