Section 622. New York minimum taxable income of resident individual

(a) The
  New  York  minimum  taxable  income  of a resident individual, estate or
  trust shall be the sum of the items of tax preference, as  described  in
  subsection  (b)  of  this  section,  reduced (but not below zero) by the
  aggregate of the following:
    (1) the applicable specific deduction described in subsection  (c)  of
  this section;
    * (2)  the tax on New York taxable income determined under section six
  hundred one for the taxable year, reduced by  the  sum  of  the  credits
  allowable  under  this  article, except for the credit under section six
  hundred seventy-three; and
    * NB Applies to taxable years beginning after 1986
    (3) to the extent that the sum of the items of tax preference  exceeds
  the  applicable  specific  deduction described in subsection (c) of this
  section plus the tax described in paragraph two above, the amount of any
  net operating loss of the taxpayer, as determined for federal income tax
  purposes,  which  remains  as  a  net  operating  loss  carryover  to  a
  succeeding  taxable  year. In such case, however, the amount of such net
  operating loss used to reduce the sum of the  items  of  tax  preference
  shall  be  treated  as  an item of tax preference in the next succeeding
  taxable years, in order of  time,  in  which  such  net  operating  loss
  carryover reduces federal taxable income.
