NOL carry forward

Hello. I'm filing an a return for a minor UTMA account which has a NOL. As far as I understand, turbotax does not generate any forms to record the NOL carry forward. The NOL is allowed to be carried forward, but I need to keep track of it myself and then use it in a later year? Or do I need to file any forms this year for the NOL carry forward?

not sure how a minor's UTMA account can have an NOL since an NOL can only arise from Business activities and it's difficult to see how that would happen. not saying that it couldn't

If the entire tax return's income (AGI) is less than 0, this is a NOL. It doesn't need to be from business activities.
