If you are using TurboTax Online, you can search for the Losses on the Tax Home page.

If you are using TurboTax Desktop you can search for the Losses using the Find tool.

If you are using TurboTax Desktop in Forms mode, you can search for the Loss worksheet by clicking on the Forms icon in the blue icon bar.

What a poor answer to the question.

I too am having issues with line 25300. On the desktop version, when I double-click on 25300 I am taken to a chart in the Losses Worksheet which is wanting me to apply against the pre-1985 value. ????

My Assessment says nothing about 1985 Losses - just Unused Losses.

IF there are pre-1985 losses to apply - a $2,000 limit applies. Not sure why Turbotax is going the 1985 route. Where is Turbotax getting this information?

I tried getting telephone help after hours - big mistake. Very painful to navigate. Very poor service.

Hopefully better luck here.

Thanks
