At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company has approximately $108.4 million and $58.5 million in federal net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”), respectively, available to reduce future taxable income. Under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the net operating losses are subject to review and possible adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service and state tax authorities. Certain tax attributes are subject to an annual limitation as a result of certain cumulative changes in ownership interest of significant shareholders which could constitute a change of ownership as defined under Internal Revenue Code Section 382. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company has completed a full analysis of historical ownership changes and determined that a portion of the net operating losses have a limitation on future deductibility. Approximately $43.8 million of net operating losses incurred prior to 2020 will be unable to offset future taxable income and have been reserved via a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax asset to the expected realizable amount, leaving $2.9 million available for use which expire at various dates through 2038 and the residual which never expire. This analysis is currently being performed for tax year ending December 31, 2022. Additionally, at December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had approximately $43.6 million and $13.3 of California and Illinois NOL carry-forwards, respectively, which expire through 2042. The NOL carry-forwards may be limited in certain circumstances, including ownership change and have been fully reserved via a valuation allowance. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets increased approximately $15.4 million and $2.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The valuation allowance for deferred tax liability increased approximately $1.4 million in the year ended December 31,2022 and increased approximately $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The differences between the United States statutory federal income tax rate and the effective income tax rate in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations are as follows: SCHEDULE OF EFFECTIVE INCOME TAX RATE RECONCILIATION
|  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Statutory United States federal rate |  |  | 21.0 | % |  |  | 21.0 | %
State income taxes net of federal benefit |  |  | 0.51 | % |  |  | 1.3 | %
Permanent differences |  |  | 0.03 | % |  |  | - | %
Other |  |  | .93 | % |  |  | (1.1 | )%

Change in valuation allowance |  |  | (22.66 | )% |  |  | (7.7 | )%
Effective rate |  |  | (0.25 | )% |  |  | 9.8 | %
