I have used a debt recycling strategy by borrowing against my home to invest in a share portfolio. However, I have made some profits from my shares and I want to use some of the capital gains made and dividends earned to continue paying down my home loan (ideally the non-deductible part) and use some for some personal expenses (e.g. a family holiday).


In that instance, what would be the impact on my investment loan? How do I properly document this too?


Also, I have started to sell call options on some of my share to generate income and also want to know what happens if I withdraw some of that income too? I might need to do so to pay off the tax payable caused by this strategy?


TIA

  1. Dividends, call options - you can do what you like with that money
  2. If you borrow to buy shares then sell the shares, the sales proceeds should be used to pay down the loan by the amount originally borrowed - if not, then part of the loan is being used for private purposes.
