    Contaminated.

    You would need to split the loan first and then pay it down and then you could later redraw and claim the interest

    So if my original loan was $250K and I originally had $50K in the redraw, I would need to split the loan in two as $200K and $50K, then put the $50K back into the second loan to make it a balance of $0, then I could draw the $50K out later and claim the interest on the second loan.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Terry I reckon there is a way to establish a trust that issues units and redeems them to help people to address borrowing purpose from a offset.....

    Trust must pay income
    Not a scheme. Hmmm. Trustee not a scheme beneficicary ?

    There is precedent. Taxpayers Assoc buy shares that are all but valueless.....Needs somethinking....
