Stock Losses and Tax Bill
Wash sale loss adjustments
- Realized capital losses from stocks can be used to reduce your tax bill.
- You can use capital losses to offset capital gains during a taxable year, allowing you to remove some income from your tax return.
- If you don’t have capital gains to offset the capital loss, you can use a capital loss as an offset to ordinary income, up to $3,000 per year.
- To deduct your stock market losses, you have to fill out Form 8949 and Schedule D for your tax return.
- If you own stock that has become worthless because the company went bankrupt and was liquidated, then you can take a total capital loss on the stock.

Wash sale loss adjustments
Wash sale loss adjustments on securities cause headaches and potentially higher tax bills. If a taxpayer repurchases substantially identical securities within 30 days before or after realizing a tax loss on securities, the IRS uses the wash sale (WS) loss rule. That defers a tax loss to the replacement position’s cost basis.
