RE: RE: IVW shares transferred to TFSA
RE: RE: IVW shares transferred to TFSAI believe you are not correct when you say yopu cannot claim, the capital loss when you transfer over to the TFSA.
When you transfer to the TFSA it is considered a point of sale.
If you bought at 1.00 (in a margin account) and sold at .10 you will have a capital loss of .90 per share.
Then you buy back into yopur TFSA at .10
Then grows from .10 to 1.00 Tax free
However: If you buy it at 1.00 in the TFSA and it goes to .10 then you cannot claim capital loss.
