IRS and Capital Losses
According to the Internal Revenue Service, "If your capital losses exceed your capital gains, the amount of the excess loss that you can claim to lower your income is the lesser of $3,000 ($1,500 if married filing separately) or your total net loss shown on line 16 of Schedule D (Form 1040)."5
For example, if an individual earned $75,000 a year and had $5,000 in net capital losses for the year, the $75,000 income will be adjusted to $72,000 ($72,000-$3,000). The remaining $2,000 in capital losses can be carried over with no expiration to offset future capital gains.
