How does form 172 work?

IRS Form 172 is used to figure the amount of net operating loss that is available to carry back or carry forward. If your deductions for the year are more than your income for the year, you may have a net operating loss. An NOL year is the year in which an NOL occurs.

How to fill form 172?

Enter the date the carryback year ends in the spaces provided in the column headings at the top of each page. Line 1NOL Deduction. Line 2Taxable Income Before the Current Year NOL Carryback. Line 3Net Capital Loss Deduction. Line 4Section 1202 Exclusion. Line 5Qualified Business Income Deduction.

Does form 172 get attached to 1040?

Attach a Form 172 for each NOL to your Form 1040 or Form 1041 if it applies. If you and your spouse were not married to each other in all years involved in figuring NOL carrybacks and carryovers, only the spouse who had the loss can take the NOL deduction.

Can form 172 be efiled?

Form 172 needs to be ready before 03/01/2025 so Farmers can efile by their 3/1/2025 deadline without penalty or interest. Individuals who receive 2/3 gross income from farming (Sch F) do not have to pay estimated quarterly taxes throughout the year as long as they efile by March 1st and pay their entire tax liability.
