This webinar will address the latest developments in gift and estate taxation, including beneficial ownership information reporting requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act, Revenue Ruling 2023-2's impact on grantor trusts and basis step-up, the continuing impact of the sunset of the lofty estate tax exclusion, and other recent legislation. Our panel of generational wealth experts will explain which estates are impacted by recent changes and offer planning tips to minimize related transfer taxes.

Description

The Corporate Transparency Act requires certain business entities to report beneficial owners to FinCEN. These reporting requirements extend to trusts that hold interests in business entities which could create an obligation to report personal identifying information for executors, trustees, and beneficiaries. Failure to file penalties can amount to as much as $10,000. Willful failure to file a return is a criminal offense.

The April 2023 IRS Bulletin summarized Revenue Ruling 2023-2 by stating that the Ruling "confirms that the basis adjustment under section 1014 generally does not apply to the assets of an irrevocable grantor trust not included in the deceased grantor's gross estate for Federal estate tax purposes," thus challenging the use of IDGTs (intentionally defective grantor trusts), which have been a historically valuable estate planning tool. Continuing to develop are planning opportunities surrounding the impending reversion of the estate tax exclusion to 2017 amounts.

Listen as our panel of transfer tax experts reviews the latest developments in estate and gift tax for trust and estate professionals.
