NOL Instructions...
The loss year return must be filed to establish the Oklahoma Net Operating Loss. If the loss is from a pass-through
entity, the pass-through entity must also file a tax return.
An Oklahoma net operating loss (NOL) shall be separately determined by reference to Section 172 of the Internal Revenue
Code as modified by the Oklahoma Income Tax Act and shall be allowed without regard to the existence of a Federal NOL.
For additional information, use the instructions for Federal Form 1045 “Application for Tentative Refund” or Federal Publication
536 “Net Operating Losses (NOLs) for Individuals, Estates, and Trusts”.
Oklahoma computes the base tax “as if” all the income were earned in Oklahoma. Therefore, an Oklahoma NOL is
computed based on the figures from the “Federal Amount Column.” This is the “Oklahoma NOL from all sources” and is
deducted in the “Federal Amount Column.”
The true Oklahoma NOL is computed using the figures from the “Oklahoma Amount Column.” This is the “Oklahoma
NOL from Oklahoma sources” and is deducted in the “Oklahoma Amount Column.” Note: If the taxpayer becomes a full-
year resident, this is the loss which would be carried to Form 511.
Each Oklahoma NOL is separately determined and allowed without regard to the existence of the other.
The loss carryback and carryforward periods shall be determined solely by reference to Section 172 of the Internal Reve-
nue Code. An election may be made to forego the NOL carryback period. A written statement of the election must be part
of the timely filed Oklahoma loss year return or to an amended return for the NOL year filed within six months of the due
date of your original return (excluding extensions).
Notes:
An NOL that is a result of a farming loss may be carried back in accordance with the provisions contained in the
Internal Revenue Code. However, the amount of the NOL carryback shall not exceed the lesser of $60,000 or the loss
properly shown on the Federal Schedule F reduced by 1/2 of the net income from all other sources other than reflect-
ed on Schedule F.
You may choose to treat a farming loss as if it were not a farming loss. To make this choice, attach a statement to your
loss year return stating that you are choosing to treat the farming loss as if it were not a farming loss under Section
172(i)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
