If there were a finance charge based on a percentage of the amount transferred, that would be considered "interest" -- and if you invested the funds (i.e., your checking account is interest-bearing), then it would qualify as "investment interest", and be deductible(Note 1) if you itemized deductions.... But you asked about requirements, not about options. Note 1: To the extent of normally taxed investment gains (not divendends or long-term capital gains, except to the extent that you elect normal taxation.) -- This account is subject to a persistent MS Blaster and SWEN attack. I think I've got the problem resolved, but, if you E-mail me and it bounces, a second try might work. However, please reply in newsgroup. << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |

The only thing you would have to report is any interest the money earned while sitting in the checking account. Otherwise it's a non-event as far as your income tax return is concerned. -- D.F.

| I recently took advantage of a 0% credit card loan of approximately $30K. The money was transferred into a bank checking account and was paid back in full within 3 months. How should this be reported? Thanks in advance, Y.M.
