Technical Interpretation - External

4 December 1995 External T.I. 9526155 - CASH GIFTS AND PRESENTS BUSINESS OR EMPLOYMENT INCOME

Unedited CRA Tags
248(1) 5(1) 6(1)(a) 9(1)

Principal Issues:

Whether cash gifts and presents constitute employment or business income.

Position:

Yes either employment or business income depending on the facts.

Reasons:

30 November 1995 External T.I. 9525235 - LEGAL FEES INCURRED IN RESPECT OF SPOUSAL SUPPORT

Unedited CRA Tags
18(1)(a)

Principal Issues:

-whether legal fees incurred in connection with applications for either interim or permanent support under a provincial statute such as Ontario's Family Law Act are generally deductible and whether similar applications under the Divorce Act are not deductible

-given that repayments of support will be taxable to the recipient if they were deducted by the payor when originally paid, whether legal fees incurred by the recipient (the original payor) to recover previously paid support would be deductible

-whether opinion expressed in 942906 is contrary to views expressed above

Position:

-legal fees incurred with respect to either interim or permanent support under a provincial statute such as Ontario's Family Law Act would be deductible to the recipient of such support

-legal costs incurred with respect to a support action (interim or permanent) commenced under the Divorce Act would not be deductible

-legal fees incurred by the recipient of a reimbursement of support payments in order to recover previously paid support would not be deductible.

-no contradiction. Position that legal expenses incurred to defend against an action to reduce spousal support is deductible is not contrary to the comments found in paragraphs 16 and 17 of IT-99R4 (which comments are reflected in above opinions)

28 November 1995 External T.I. 9505645 - KENTUCKY LLC

Unedited CRA Tags
95(1) art 4 reg 5907(11.2)(b)

Principal Issues:

whether a LLC formed under the laws of Kentucky be considered a corporation for purposes of the Act

Position:

Yes

Reasons:

28 November 1995 External T.I. 9527915 - PRIVATE HEALTH SERVICES PLANS

Unedited CRA Tags
6(1)(a)

Principal Issues:

An employer provides health care coverage for its employees. The coverage includes the payment of premiums by the employer to an insurance carrier. The coverage provided by the insurance carrier in respect of each is subject to a deductible amount of $1,500. In addition, the employer would enter into a "cost plus" arrangement with an insurance company under which health care coverage for each employee in the amount of $1,500 would be provided. To the extent that valid claims made by an employee are less than $1,500, the employer would make a payment in respect of the employee pursuant to a group retirement plan. The issue is whether a private health services plan (PHSP) can be considered to be in existence.

Position:

A PHSP does not exist.
