Lawsuit settlement payment

Post by moi »

Good morning.
Would you know, if you are able to redeposit money awarded from a class action lawsuit, into the account it came from? In this case, it was from a TFSA.
One call to CRA, they said yes, the other is unsure!
I'm searching CRA for a ruling, but unsuccessful at this point in time.

Good news! You can redeposit, a few hoops to go to go through, paperwork required, but it's doable.
