We’re sorry for your loss

Unfortunately TurboTax does not support T3 Trust Income Tax returns, for a deceased person.

Dear Brenda.  Thank-you for your response.  I fear though that I did not pose my question clearly.  May I try again.  I am preparing both a T3 trust income tax return and a T1 return for a deceased.  I am only using TurboTax to prepare the T1  return.   The T3 return allows me to transfer and claim a capital loss on the T1 return by using the election 164(6), as per page 33 of the CRA T3 Trust Guide.  My question is where do I enter this number in TurboTax?  For example, can I enter it  in section 3 of schedule 3? Or is there a separate special line on which to enter it?

You have a good question. I have the same one. 

 

The frustration is so ironic when the tax seminar presenters spout out this great tax advice but no one actually knows how to do it.

I too have the same question and yet no response

Here is how you would enter it in TurboTax Desktop. 

 

TTD Final Capitol Loss2

 

You then can go to your T1 General and verify that 50% of the amount went to line 12700. 

The graphic does not reflect the orginal gain as reported at death.  I would not override - merely enter on Schedle 3 a line item citing 164(6) election.
