Passive Loss Carryforward

Dolman — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 07:24:43 GMT

I'm at the Report Carryovers - Regular Tax page. Turbotax Populated Box 1, Ordinary Income with the 2020 passive loss. Where do I find the amount to enter in Box 2a? I'll probably slap my head when I read the response, but as of now I'm clueless. Thank you in advance for your help.

Please clarify:

What tax return are you preparing, individual 1040, or a business return 1120S, 1065?

What type of carryover do you have, rental, foreign tax, etc?

Are you using TurboTax online or the CD\Download version?

Thank you.

Helen, thank you for your reply.

I am working on a 1040, using download version.

The losses carryforward are from domestic limited partnerships.

All of the partnerships are oil related.

Many thanks to the responders. I figured it out by myself.

I never fail to be exhilarated while preparing my tax return.

Can you clarify what you specifically need help with? There was never enough information in this thread to be able to help clearly.
