There are two lines on Screen 20.x for entering gains & losses.  DID you use the one that says "passive"?  Which is what Susan asked 17 hours ago...

"It showed on Sch D"  is not an answer to where you entered it.

This is the Answer ! and I appreciate your input .  I did NOT  enter this as Passive.   My error.  Lacerte got a copy of this return, and looked at it,  they did not suggest that Correct Answer

Turdo tax. If the 1231 gain is passive, the passive loss can be used. How did you enter the 1231 gainin Lacerte?

The more I know the more I don’t know.

I had to log in.  I don't know if you saw my reply or not.  the 1231 gain is shown on Sch D. Lacerte said, of course, that Lacerte is correct, and T Tax is wrong.  who knows?
