Screen CO - Carryovers, Nonbusiness (1040)

Overview

Use this screen to enter carryover information that does not need to be maintained on an activity-specific level.
Carryover Information
Enter only the net amount of losses generated and the utilizations of losses for the years shown.

Enter carryovers as positive amounts and utilizations as negative amounts.
