    Married couple had a $25,000 NOL, they are now seperated and will file MFS,,,,,(no children), yes they could file MFJ, but refuse...how does the NOL work.

      Nol

      Yes on community property state CA
      Casulty loss on schedule A.....house burned down
      Niether one will itemize this year.

      Would there be any advantage to a MFJ....don't think they will.....but maybe if it would pay other than the using the higher deduction and exemption.

        A casualty loss, even on non business personal property can create an NOL, which can be carried forward. They would have to itemize, however, to claim the casualty loss. So if they do not itemize, there is no NOL.
