Loss carryforward not being applied to current year income

I have Schedule C loss carryforward from previous year but it is not being applied to current year Schedule C income to lower my tax liability.  Is there a certain box that needs to be checked off or a specific way/method it needs to be done?

That is a very good answer. I did not know that Proseries basic does not do that automatically.

It is on Schedule C (Form 8995-A) Loss Netting and Carry Forward.  Can you please help me a little bit more by letting me know on which schedule and which box to enter the figure?

Really appreciate your answer.

That sounds like a QBI carryover, not an NOL.

You’ve come to an Intuit site supporting tax professionals, and you may be looking for support as an individual taxpayer. Please visit the TurboTax Help site for support.

I am not looking for individual support but as a tax preparer using Proseries Basic.

You should not be preparing tax returns for compensation if you have to ask questions like that.

Schedule C loss does not carryover, unless it is a NOL. Or are you talking about home office loss carryover?

It is a NOL

It will be on the NOL worksheet. Find it in forms lookup.

And beware the 80% issue if there is an actual N O L.
