    How far can you go back re: a loss?

    I just realized that I had a loss of approx. $3,000 on sale of stock in 2001, but didn't incorporated that into my taxes on the 2001 return (nobodies fault but my own)!

    Will I be able to 'carry over' this loss to 2007?

    3 yrs and if I am wrong, I will be corrected. By the way, all Professional Tax Preparers know the answer to this question, your not a Professional Tax Preparer are you?

      Since 2001 is a closed year, assuming a timely filed return, you would get no refund.
