Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I read thru the instructions on 2017 & 2018 Net Operating losses (IRS Pub 536).  It looks like I've missed the deadlines for both years.  Based on what I've read I can only carry these losses forward.  Which is unfortunate b/c I was in a much higher tax bracket for the years I would have been able to carry back.

 

I've contacted a CPA and I'm waiting to hear back.  Maybe there are some work arounds or leniencies granted.  Doubtful.
