Hi,

 

I sold some stock in 2018 and incurred loss larger than the allowable claim amount of $1500, can I still claim the carry over loss? I don't see that option in Turbo Tax 2021 Premier version

    If you had a carryover loss in 2018 it should be reported on the 2018 tax return.  You would have to amend and file 2019 - 2020 to see the effect each year.  If there is anything left over it can be applied to 2021.

     

    Just as a point of clarification.  The allowable Capital Loss is $3.000 per year.
