Capital Loss Carryover Worksheet—Lines 6 and 14 Keep for Your Records

Use this worksheet to figure your capital loss carryovers from 2019 to 2020 if your 2019 Schedule D, line 21, is a loss and (a) that loss is a smaller loss than the loss on your 2019 Schedule D, line 16, or (b) if the amount on your 2019 Form 1040 or 1040-SR, line 11b (or your 2019 Form 1040-NR, line 41, if applicable) would be less than zero if you could enter a negative amount on that line. Otherwise, you don't have any carryovers. If you and your spouse once filed a joint return and are filing separate returns for 2020, any capital loss carryover from the joint return can be deducted only on the return of the spouse who actually had the loss. If you excluded canceled debt from income in 2020, see Pub. 4681.
