CAN 2021 losses be carried back?

Most taxpayers no longer have the option to carryback a net operating loss (NOL). For most taxpayers, NOLs arising in tax years ending after 2020 can only be carried forward. The 2-year carryback rule in effect before 2018, generally, does not apply to NOLs arising in tax years ending after December 31, 2017.

A net operating loss (NOL) carryback allows a firm to apply a net operating loss to a previous year’s tax return, for an immediate refund of prior taxes paid. A carryback—and the resulting immediate refund of prior taxes paid—is typically more beneficial than a carryforward due to the time value of money.
