[C320-list] Boat owners income tax question

[jsail320 at cox.net]

Interesting!!!  If you did get an IRS audit , how would you support the interest deduction without a statement from the bank.

I always received the form from my bank prior to paying off the loan.

This year my bank, The Citizens National Bank, who several area Catalina Dealers use for boat loans, decided they would no longer provide this form.  One of the persons I talked with at the bank indicated that all banks were doing this and I wondered if other list members experienced the same thing this year.  Thanks.
