Description

Section 1244 of the Internal Revenue Code is the small business stock provision enacted to allow shareholders of domestic small business corporations to deduct a loss on the disposal of such stock as an ordinary loss rather than as a capital loss, which is limited to only $3,000 annually. Normally, stock is treated as a capital asset and if disposed of at a loss, the loss is deducted as a capital loss. The general rule for net capital losses (losses that exceed gains) is that they are subject to an annual deduction limit of only $3,000. Any excess over $3,000 must be carried over to the next year. A loss on Section 1244 stock is deductible as an ordinary loss up to $50,000 ($100,000 on a joint return, even if only one spouse has a Section 1244 loss).
