Does anyone know how tax liability on joint accounts is determined? My broker only allows one margin account per individual tax ID, and I want to have two (one for trading), so I'm setting up a joint account with a brother. I realize the brokers only report the tax information on one ID (which will be mine), but I want to be sure the Service cannot claim the joint account holder is liable for any taxes. What do I do to ensure this (write a notarized letter to my brother)? It will be my capital and any withdrawals will go to me.
