Shareholders Loan

 

 

 
I am doing my personal taxes for 2023. I also have a corporation. In 2023 I withdrew funds in Shareholders loans. The same year I paid back the full amount of the loans. In Turbotax I have a line to fill in called Other Income Line 2.  and I have to insert the amount I withdrew from my corporation. But, if I paid it all back should I still insert the amount withdrawn? or just leave it at 0? Since there is nowhere to show the amount paid back then I am assuming I just leave it blank.

If you paid back the full amount within 1 year after the end of the taxation year of the lender, and the repayment was not part of a series of loans or other transactions and repayments, then the loan is not taxable. You don't need to enter it on your personal tax return.

Sorry, I don't. My question relates to my personal taxes.

Hello,

I hope you can answer how/where a sharehodelrs loan balanece should be reported on T1 if not repaid within the 1 year-period. My understanig is the the unpaid balance should be included in the income for the year when the loan was advanced. However, on which schedule should it be reported?

 

In addition, when/if the loan is repaid in full to the corporation by the shareholder in subseqent year - how is this reported to take a deduction in personla income for that year?

 

Thank you in advance!
