Tom,
The CARES Act indeed allowed for a five-year carryback for net operating losses (NOLs) arising in 2018, 2019, and 2020.
· Three-Year Rule: Generally, you have three years from the date you filed your original return to file an amended return. If you filed your 2019 tax return on April 15, 2020, you would have until April 15, 2023, to file an amended return.
· Second Amendment: If you are filing a second amended return, the three-year period would still be calculated from the date the original return was filed, not from the date the first amended return was filed.
· CARES Act Passage: The CARES Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020. However, the statute of limitations for filing an amended return is not extended by the passage of the CARES Act itself. The standard three-year rule still applies.
