  4. Hello AustinsJfBellm,

    Day trader definition :
    A day trader is a person who makes their living buying, selling securities. The Canada Revenue Agency looks at several factors to define investment professionals for purposes of taxation. If a taxpayer is using day trading as a way to earn or substantially supplement his income, he is not eligible to claim capital gains, and its advantageous tax rate, on those investment earnings.
    A person who works in the investment industry and makes frequent short-term investment turnovers, such as a stockbroker, for example, may be considered a day trader as well.

    The CRA looks at several factors to consider if a taxpayer is in the business of buying and selling securities. A professional investor will have many buying and selling transactions.

        Knowledge and experience with securities markets and transactions and time spent analyzing markets and investments also identify those engaged in investment as a business. Purchases may also be financed on margin or other debt, and the shares purchased generally won’t pay dividends.
        OF note, each securities transaction generates a T5008 slip, which identifies the purchaser by name and social insurance number, so the CRA can monitor.
        The size of the capital gains claimed may also factor into the determination that the taxpayer invests as a business. capital gains through Schedule 3.

    You should consult with an accountant.

  9. Hello PeteH,

    (1.) Generally the personal use property (ie principal home) is exempt from capital gains due to the Principal Residence Exemption (PRE) see link for details and rules) :

    Per the When you sell your home or when you are considered to have sold it, usually you do not have to pay tax on any gain from the sale because of the principal residence exemption. This is the case if the property was solely your principal residence for every year you owned it.

    (2.) For property other then the above PRE capital costs / expenditures can be added to the acquisition cost for the capital gain (loss) calculation

     

  10. Hello PeteH,

    CCA must be claimed annually (if you choose to take the deduction).

    Claiming capital cost allowance (CCA)

    You might acquire a depreciable property, such as a building, furniture, or equipment, to use in your business or professional activities.

    Since these properties may wear out or become obsolete over time, you can deduct their cost over a period of several years. This yearly deduction is called a capital cost allowance (CCA).

    You cannot deduct the full cost of depreciable property when you calculate your net business or professional income for the year in which you acquired the property.

    If you want to claim depreciation for your property, click on the "CCA" sub-section and select the appropriate class, usually Class 1.
    (2.)  Capital costs - Repairs / Additions
    If you have made repairs to your rental property, you must determine whether it is a capital or current expense.
    We invite you to consult the CRA guide T4036 at the following link:
