Message: Re: Are intrerset paid from a margin account deductible?

Vila, here is what I found concerning the line 221 on the income tax form:

"You can claim the following carrying charges and interest you paid to earn income from investments:

  • Most interest you pay on money you borrow for investment purposes, but generally only as long as you use it to try to earn investment income, including interest and dividends. However, if the only earnings your investment can produce are capital gains, you cannot claim the interest you paid."

So, if I'm reading corectly, you cannot claim a deduction for the interest paid after buying stocks on your margin accopunt because it is solely for capital gain purpose.

Here is the info:
