The NOL started in 2019 and a portion was also used in 2020.  There is still a remainder to use for 2021.  How is is applied to TurboTax?

You have to enter the NOL into the program (of course, you have to calculate it first).

 

You should see Net Operating Loss/QBI Carryforward Loss in the program.

You can enter your NOLs in TurboTax Online by following these steps:

 

  1. Within your Federal return, click on Income & Expenses at the top of the screen
  2. Scroll down to Other Business Situations and click Show more
  3. Choose Start on the line for Net Operating Loss/QBI Carryforward Loss and progress through the interview.

When I click on "Business Income and Expenses" I get "How do you want to enter your business income" , there is no "other business situations" to scroll down to.  What am I doing wrong?

I found out that if you have a NOL from rentals (Schedule E), the NOL is entered as an "other miscellaneous expense" in the Expense Review for the rental.
