such a declaration is upon filing you must qualify every year, period. if you apply mark to market rules... that would carry over in your accounting for shares liquidated later in a future year.... suggest you consult a good tax advisor... FEW know about these rules. don't let some idiot charge big bucks who knows as much as you can learn from reading the same book. you will really have to hunt for a CPA who knows this stuff.... it is off the beaten path for most. should be lots of stuff on one of the tax threads...this question comes up every year. regards J
