    Enter a Capital Loss Carryover under

    Federal Taxes or Personal (Home & Business)

    Wages and Income

    Then scroll down to Investment Income

    You enter the full amount that carried over, not just the 3,000

     

    The full amount carries over from the prior year.  The 3,000 is just the max loss you can claim each year AFTER offsetting any gains you have.  So you might use more of it up in one year.
