How do you enter capital loss carryover in an individual multi-state return?

There are no transactions for the year 2010, so no capital gains or losses either. The capital loss from last year [2009] is when TP resided in CA. In Nov 2010, TP moved to NM. How do you treat the carryover loss in CA and NM income tax returns?

Thanks.

Capital loss carryover should be reported on schedule D, and enter these amounts on lines 6 and 14 of Schedule D, but you also should clarify the long term or short term capital loss.

Thank you for the clarification nearbyside.

“ The capital loss from last year [2009] is when TP resided in CA. In Nov 2010, TP moved to NM. How do you treat the carryover loss in CA and NM income tax returns?”--->You need to report the capital loss on your CA return as a part year resident of CA; you do not have to report the capital loss on your NM return as a part year resident. You need to file both CA and NM return as a part year resident of both CA and NM.
