Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C (Stafford Act).

Claiming the loss on an original or amended return Claiming the loss on an original or amended return for prior year will entitle the taxpayer to an earlier refund, but waiting to claim the loss on the return for the year of loss could result in a greater tax saving, depending on other income factors. 16
17 Filing Requirements for Losses Election to take casualty loss in preceding tax year must be made by the later of the following dates: Due date (without extensions) for filing tax return for the tax year in which the disaster occurred. Due date (with extensions) for filing tax return for the preceding tax year.
