What is the name of your state? SC
Hello, I lent a friend over the course of a year and a half over $20,000 to help get her on her feet and having a difficult time trying to recoup the money since she has not been able to to make ends meet , let alone start repaying.
At the time, around 5 years ago now, she wanted to sign something of me lending the money but I said foolishly, 'don't worry about it' you just get on your feet and when your other loans are finished then start to repay me back. She lives in another Country as well.
Now I have heard I can actually write some of my taxes off if I have signed document in regards to the money borrowed, is this true? Should I seek to get signed document pertaining to the money borrowed and the amount?
Any advice would be helpful.
