I'm selling some stocks that have plummeted in value. How long can I carry forward capital losses on these stocks?

You can carry unused capital losses forward for as long as you live. Your capital losses will offset capital gains and up to $3,000 per year (or $1,500 for married filing separately status) if you have other taxable income. Occasionally, Congress considers instituting a capital loss carryback, which would provide a refund for previous years in which a tax loss occurred. Theyíve also discussed increasing the $3,000 limit. That amount has been part of the tax law since 1977 without adjustment.
