What makes a qualified dividend?
Regular dividends that meet particular criteria, as stated by the United States Internal Revenue Code, are taxed at the lower long-term capital gains tax rate rather than the higher tax rate for an individual’s ordinary income. Qualified dividend rates range from 0% to 23.8 percent. The Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 established the category of qualified dividend (as opposed to ordinary dividend); previously, there was no distinction and all dividends were either untaxed or taxed at the same rate.
The payee must own the shares for a sufficient period of time to qualify for the qualified dividend rate, which is usually 60 days for common stock and 90 days for preferred stock.
The dividend must also be paid by a corporation based in the United States or with particular ties to the United States to qualify for the qualifying dividend rate.
Answer
A nondividend distribution is one that is not paid out of a corporation’s earnings and profits. You won’t be taxed on any nondividend distributions you get until you recoup your stock’s basis. You must declare the nondividend payout as a capital gain once your stock’s basis has been reduced to zero. The length of time you have held the stock determines whether you report the gain or loss as a long-term or short-term capital gain or loss.
