Will Uncle Sam be the Primary Beneficiary of Your Clients’ Estates?

The golden age of gifting is here now! 2020 provides gift and estate planning opportunities that can be taken advantage of before year-end. It is urgent that you connect with clients now to avoid missing out on the best tax planning options that may disappear after this year. For 2020, the estate and gift exemption is $11,580,000 per person ($23,160,000 per couple). The exemption can and should be used for lifetime gifts for wealthier clients who are more likely to be subject to a future estate tax.
