My new client had NOL carry forward from 2020 (NOL )


 

As a side note ... You probably already checked this, but just in case you didn't think about it ... Are you SURE there is a NOL carry forward?

Originally, 2020 automatically carried forward.  Then Congress retroactively changed the law that made it carry back.  So have you checked if your client filed the election to "waive the carryback", so that it carried forward?  If I remember correctly, due to the retroactive nature of it, the election to "waive the carryback" could be on either the 2020 or 2021 return (although I would need to look that up to be sure).

Again, you may have already checked that, but I thought I would mention it in case you forgot about it.
