How Will Your Estate Be Affected by Estate Taxes?
There are two types of death taxes: federal estate tax and state inheritance tax. Under current federal law, the estate tax has been repealed. Under the current law, in 2011, estates of a value of only $1 million dollars will be taxed up to 55 percent of the asset value.
Final Tax Accounting Services That Coordinate With Your Legal Services
Part of the probate and trust administration process includes a full inventory and valuation of the decedent’s property, including filing the federal 706 estate tax documents. MH Accounting offers complete probate and trust administration tax services, including:
- Estate inventory and valuation
- Re-titling unprotected assets to protect against creditors and judgments
- 706 estate tax preparation and filing
- Business tax review, asset protection and succession planning
- Income tax preparation
No Estate Is Too Small to Need an Experienced MH Accountant
Estates under $1 million dollars are exempt from federal estate taxes, but your family will probably not avoid state administration fees and costs completely. Administration expenses under state law and federal estate taxes have nothing to do with each other. For individuals and families with more than $100,000 in financial or property assets, a living trust is one of the most important instruments for protecting against creditors, judgments, and ex-spouses. By protecting your assets in a trust, you can also avoid the Medicaid (ALTCS) spend-down requirements for long-term care.
