efile is blocking my form 8995 because i manually added last years Total qualified business carry forward

[dhlwintr]

I am trying to efile.  I attempted to over ride form 8995.  I had a qualified business loss carry forward in 2022.  I manually entered it 2023 taxes which I would like to efile.  How do I get this filed?  I got figure from a CPA created tax return in 2022.

the loss carryforward should be entered on the form for the activity that generated the loss. you cannot override form 8995. you should be asked about it when you get to the point in Turbotax where you are entering the info for the activity. the QBI questions should come at the end

even if you disposed of the activity. that loss carries forward until there is QBI income to offset it. one caveat. the QBI tax laws lapse after the end of 2025. no one can say what will happen to unused QBI losses at that point.
