Estate Planning Red Flag – Your spouse’s estate didn’t make a portability election
$225.00
Description
Abstract: Portability helps minimize federal gift and estate taxes by allowing a surviving spouse to use a deceased spouse’s unused gift and estate tax exemption amount. But, as this brief article explains, portability isn’t automatically available; it requires the deceased spouse’s executor to make a portability election on a timely filed estate tax return.
