can you let us know the outcome @B.E because a couple of those will impact my dividend investments too. even though visual, i rely on the accuracy of the data T212 provides for my analysis.
Hi all,
I would like to ask about an issue I have noticed.
Both January and April dividends from Kirkland Lake Gold (NYSE:KL) have been qualified as Return of Capital.
Dividends announced by company were $0.188 per share:
That being said, Transaction History exported to CSV and the above screens show, that 15% of tax was actually taken and paid ($0.28 of difference, which is 15%), but it still shows 0. If I use that history for taxation issues, I will have to pay a double tax. My country has a tax tready with both US and Canada (paying 15%).
KL is not a MLP company to pay returns of capitals.
Can you please advise? If I have to pay over 30% of taxes, because it’s showing incorrect values, I may consider selling it to not pay 1/3 of taxes.
And T212 screen showing the final amount, lowered by the ADR fee and withheld tax:
however, based on that data, I could pay another tax in my country (19%) as 0% tax means I have to make a full payment here. I don’t really want to save all evidences for tax purposes for different stocks.
Besides Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) mentioned on the OP, also labelled as “Return of capital” with 0 % Witholding Tax:
Brookfield Infrastructure (BIP)
Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP)
They appeared both on History and on CSV Export file also with withhold tax = 0 USD.
How can we know the tax amount that was withhold?
We have to do the calculations on our own (with some error probability) because Trading 212 made some “visual errors” 9 days ago and still didn’t correct them?!
Trading 212 have a duty to correct your mistakes, 0% Withhold Tax and 0 USD Withhold Tax are wrong, if we pay taxes, you must correct yours errors ASAP.
We shouldn’t have to do due diligence if you pay correctly or not. Time is money. We don’t work for Trading 212.
Yes. But we shouldn’t have to be the T212 cop, analyzing every transaction to see if T212 have done it correctly. And customers shouldn’t have to spent their free time to check T212 work. Time is money.
Hello! Two examples from yesterday! Hopefully the team manages to keep up!
Apple (from Deutche Borse) actually got taxed on 15%, insted of US stock rate of 10%. And BTI, again actually taxed - not just visual bug (in the screenshot)
BTI listed on the NYSE is an American Depositary Receipt.
These are generally treated as a US security so 15%, but can sometimes be treated with different WHT rates based on the country of the underlying stock.
Tax can be tricky in these instances so worth checking.
It really depends on country of origin for the individual, afaik Bulgaria or Romania have lower then 15%, I believe as OP spoken 10%.
But at @carez have you checked math if indeed there is Witholding, as it might be visual bug like we had with Canadian corps.
I have had BTI crusade some time ago:
So in any case, first thing of order, do math on dividend, if indeed tax was applied. You need to open ticket and push for resolution, I know it took me several rejections etc.
