I entered a K-1 for a trust which had quite a bit of long term capital gains into turbo tax. I did not see any change in my taxes due, which does not seem correct. Why?

Do you have any capital losses that might offset the capital gains?

Long-term capital gains should be reported in box 4a of the K-1 (trust) and should flow to line 12 of Schedule D.

I suggest you review Schedule D to see if there are items that are offsetting some of all of the gain.

Yes the long term capital gains are reported in the box 4a, and are correctly input into tubrbo tax. I do not have an losses to offset the gains. When I search for the schedule-D it takes me to the wages & income - investment sales section. It does not list in that section the gains reported and input in the k-1 (trust) section. It is almost like Turbo tax is just ignoring everything that I have input in the k-1 section.

You don't have the desktop version, apparently, so you can't actually see the forms.

@TurboTaxIrene is correct; if you could see the forms, you would see a figure from your K-1 on Line 12 of Sch D. Also, there is a qualified dividends and capital gains tax worksheet where that figure would appear and taxes are calculated (which you can't see either in the online version).
