Reply to comment by Mysunsai in Deducting Losses from Sale of ISOs (USA) by _Nothing_Left_

Perhaps this is an NSO. The documentation online had info about both ISO and NSO. Maybe because some other employees had ISOs? This is probably just my inexperience with the topic. Thank you for the help.

In that case, your sale just results in capital losses now, unrelated to your previous taxes. If you end the year with a net capital loss, up to $3k of that reduces your other taxable income, and the rest carries forward to future years.

Your previous taxes occurred in the past, and are no longer important to anything that goes on now.
