Reply to comment by Unknownirish in Tax offset on paid dividends by bnabin51

I had short calls (without shares) before ex-dividend and the call owner exercised them before ex-dividend, leading me to be in short positions of stocks. So, I had to pay dividends to the person from whom I borrowed the shares. https://www.reddit.com/r/stocks/comments/11clbzq/is_the_dividend_paid_on_short_positions_tax/
