2023 Amendment for missing NOL, FTC, Long-Term Capital Loss

Hi,

I need to file a 2023 amended tax return for a client. The original return did not include the following items:

  • Net operating loss (NOL) of $31,495 (from 2005–2016)
  • Long-term capital loss carryforward of $86,250
  • Foreign tax credit (FTC) carryforward from 2012

I am not the original tax preparer. I first recreated the 2023 tax return based on the original filing and then made a copy to prepare the amendment.

Could you please advise on the proper way to input the NOL in the amended return? I have records of the NOL carryforward amounts from 2005 through 2016.

Also, I overrode some amounts on Form 1116, and I am now unable to print the form. Could you please advise how to resolve this issue?

Thank you,

Iris Bang

Doesn't the Foreign Tax Credit only carry forward for 10 years?  That would means that 2022 was the last year, so the amended 2023 return would not have that.  Right?  Or am I forgetting something?

For the NOLs, just to confirm, 2017-2022 wasn't able to use up the NOLs from the older years?
