In 2015 had loss. Elected under section 172 b 3 to relinquish the entire carryback period for any 2015 NOL. Can I still carryforward loss in future years?

"Can I still carryforward loss in future years?"

Yes. Since you waived the carryback period, you can carryover your net operating loss to each of the 20 taxable years following the taxable year of the loss. See I.R.C. §172(b)(1)(a)(ii)

Tagteam, It is very help ful. thank you so much for your response. Can I ask you a follow-up question: it seems that TurboTax do not calculate the allowable amount, any way to find out the allowable NOL, or I can just enter the amount listed on 2015 Form line 37, "Subtract line 36 from line 22. This is your adjusted gross income". Thanks
