If a Net Loss arises in a year for which a person is required to file a return (but only a Blue Return) as prescribed in Article 125, paragraph (1), paragraph (3), or paragraph (5) (Filing a Tax Return If the Taxpayer Has Died Partway Through the Year), the person filing the return may file a claim with the competent district tax office director for the locality in which the income taxes indicated in the return are paid, seeking to be issued an income tax refund in the amount equivalent to what is arrived at when the amount set forth in item (ii) is deducted from the amount set forth in item (i), at the time of filing that return and pursuant to Cabinet Order:
the amount of income taxes calculated when Chapter III, Section 1 (Tax Rates) is applied to the previous year's taxable gross income, taxable retirement income, and taxable timber income for a Resident dying as prescribed in Article 125, paragraph (1) or paragraph (3);
the amount of income taxes calculated when Chapter III, Section 1, is applied to the amount arrived at when all or part of the Net Loss is deducted from the previous year's taxable gross income, taxable retirement income, and taxable timber income for a Resident dying as prescribed in the preceding item.
Paragraph (2) and paragraph (3) of the preceding Article apply mutatis mutandis to a case as referred to in the preceding paragraph.
第一項の規定は、同項第一号に規定する死亡をした居住者がその年の前年分の所得税につき青色申告書を提出している場合であつて、同項に規定する申告書を提出する者が当該申告書をその提出期限までに提出した場合（税務署長においてやむを得ない事情があると認める場合には、当該申告書をその提出期限後に提出した場合を含む。）に限り、適用する。
Paragraph (1) applies only if the Resident dying as prescribed in item (i) of that paragraph filed a Blue Return for the previous year's income taxes and the person filing the return prescribed in that paragraph files the return by the deadline for filing it (or after the deadline for filing the return, if the district tax office director finds there to be compelling circumstances for allowing this).
居住者が死亡した場合において、その死亡の日の属する年の前年において生じたその者に係る純損失の金額（第七十条第一項（純損失の繰越控除）の規定により同日の属する年において控除されたもの及び次条第二項の規定により還付を受けるべき金額の計算の基礎となつたものを除く。）があるときは、その相続人は、その居住者の同日の属する年の前年分及び前前年分の所得税につき青色申告書が提出されている場合に限り、政令で定めるところにより、その居住者の同日の属する年分の所得税に係る確定申告期限までに、当該所得税の納税地の所轄税務署長に対し、当該純損失の金額につき第一項及び第二項の規定に準じて計算した金額に相当する所得税の還付を請求することができる。
If a Resident who has died incurred a Net Loss in the year prior to the one in which the date of the Resident's death falls (this Net Loss excludes any amount deducted in the year in which that date falls pursuant to Article 70, paragraph (1) (Deduction for Carryover of Net Loss), and excludes any amount used as the basis for calculating the amount to be refunded pursuant to paragraph (2) of the following Article), the Resident's heir may file a claim with the competent district tax office director for the locality in which the income taxes in the relevant year were paid pursuant to Cabinet Order, seeking to be issued a refund in an amount equivalent to what is calculated in accordance with paragraph (1) and paragraph (2) for that Net Loss, by the income tax Filing Deadline for the year in which the date of the Resident's death falls, but only if a Blue Return was filed for income taxes for the year prior to that in which the date of the Resident's death falls and the year before that.
