It is easier to deal with now. ingram Read the Government Bulletin at: http://www.ccra-adrc.gc.ca/E/pub/tp/it533/it533-e.html#P138_15186 Print it out and then read my November 2001 Newsletter on the same = subject at:=20 http://www.centa.com/CEN-TAPEDE/November_2001.htm david ingram The example I like best is the most abused. Someone will borrow $1,000 to buy an investment and the interest is = clearly deductible. However, if they sell the investment for less money = as David Emerson did, in the past, they would try and disallow the = interest on the remaining loan because there was no longer any = expectation of profit. This bulletin clearly states that if you sell it = for $600 and pay off $600 of the loan, the interst on the $400 remaining = is still deductible even though there is no ;pmger any possibility of = profit. However, if you take the $600 and buy something personal, none of the = interest would be deductible in the future. Pay atention and print it all out. =20 David Ingram's US/Canada Services US / Canada / Mexico tax and working Visa Specialists US / Canada Real Estate Specialists 4466 Prospect Road North Vancouver, BC, CANADA, V7N 3L7 Res (604) 980-3578 Cell (604) 657-8451 (604) 980-0321=20 New email to [email protected] www.centa.com www.david-ingram.com Disclaimer: This question has been answered without detailed = information or consultation and is to be regarded only as general = comment.
