I noticed that there is a line for Net Operating Loss Carryforward. Since I used Turbox for my tax return for many years, I am wondering if TurboTax can pull my previous record and calculate this number for me automatically.. If this is not possible, how can I obtain this number manually?

    TurboTax does not support the calculation of an NOL.

     

    You can use the worksheet available at the IRS web site (link below) to figure your NOL.

    Thanks @Anonymous_ do you know is there any way to request this feature? Since TurboTax got all of my previous years' return, it should be able to figure that out for me.

    The development team makes the ultimate decisions as to which features/enhancements are added based upon the perceived need.

     

    Requests typically are not taken into consideration unless the demand is overwhelming.
