Gain an understanding of how income tax and estate planning is affected once a client passes away.
The Federal Estate and Gift Tax Exemption of $11,180,000, plus portability, changes the focus of Post Mortem Tax Planning. The focus of this topic will be on income tax issues that arise as a result of death. In addition, it will include a review of how to fix an estate plan after death. While state law may allow for post-death fixes, what is the IRS portion? We will review steps to minimize income tax, how a tax problem can be fixed and what the IRA rules are.
