Net Operating Loss Carryover
To enter an NOL carryover in Form 1120 in TaxSlayer Pro, from the Main Menu of the tax return (Form 1120) select:
- Schedule K - Other Information
- Available NOL Carryover From Prior Years
The amount entered will offset income for the current year. Any unused portion will carry forward to next year's return.
If the prior year's return with the NOL was prepared in TaxSlayer Pro, when starting the following year's return you will be queried about pulling in the NOL to Schedule K.
Capital Loss Carryover
To enter a capital loss carryover in Form 1120 in TaxSlayer Pro, from the Main Menu of the tax return (Form 1120) select:
- Income
- Capital Gain Net Income (Schedule D)
- Other Short Term Data
- Unused Capital Loss Carryover
The loss carryover will only offset the capital gain. If the prior year's return with the capital loss carryover was prepared in TaxSlayer Pro, when starting the following year's return you will be queried about pulling in the carryover to Schedule D.
