Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@3grandkids1 Your posted to a very old thread that has many posts from other users.  We do not know any details of your loss since you have not provided any information.   However, casualty and theft losses are not deductible on a federal return.  The tax laws that went into effect for 2018 eliminated those kinds of losses as a federal deduction with only a few exceptions such as being in a disaster area or being the victim of a Ponzi scheme.  Sorry.
