Purpose of This Form
Use this form to calculate your excludable New Mexico net operating loss (NM NOL) carryforward deduction from the current year  
New Mexico personal income tax. For each prior-year NM NOL carryforward, also show how you applied the credit in columns 4, 5, and 
6. In column 7, show the balance of NM NOL carryforward available for the next tax year. If you are reporting a NM NOL deduction from a

Example
In tax year 2018, taxpayer X has tax due and wants to carryforward prior-year losses to offset the income on X’s 2018 personal income tax return. X 
incurred an NM NOL of $48,000 in 2013, and an NM NOL of $97,000 in 2014. In tax years 2015, 2016, and 2017, X calculated the current year net 
income before applying NM NOL at $7,000, $1,500 and $2,500, respectively. X applied the NM NOL incurred in tax year 2013 towards the net income 
for tax years 2015, 2016, and 2017. For current tax year 2018, the net taxable income that X calculates before NM NOL is $8,000. X may use the 
loss incurred in 2013 towards X’s 2018 net income. Because X cannot carry forward the balance from the 2013 NM NOL for more than five years, X 
reports in Column 6 the amount of NM NOL that expires during 2018, which X cannot exclude from NM net income during 2018. X completes Form 
RPD-41369 as shown here.
