20 March 2017 External T.I. 2014-0545591E5 - Upstream Loan and Debt Forgiveness Rules
debt forgiveness not a repayment
When an upstream loan to Canco from its wholly owned CFA is forgiven following a sale of the CFA, this will not qualify as a repayment of the loan for purposes of the upstream loan rules so that, at best, reserves will need to be claimed under s. 90(9) throughout the indefinite lifetime of Canco.
