Mike, thank you for your quick response. For some reason my earlier question got truncated, so here are some details: It was a privately held C-Corp. Went out of business around Oct.2018. Tried reaching out to owner/president/director for a while but no response...waited till now to claim the losses. Wanted to check if I can claim the stock/equity investment as Ordinary loss (given abandoned corporation, using Sec.165(a) instead of 165(g), and then the debt investment piece (loans I gave the corporation) as capital loss.
Thank you.
