A One-Time Revenue “Window of Opportunity”
Is About to Close – – Unless You Grab It Now!
Whether you’re a CPA, estate planning attorney or a financial advisor (who’d like to generate more referrals from CPAs and attorneys), here’s a unique chance to generate immediate revenue – – but it’s only available for a few more months.
IRS Revenue Procedure 2014-18 allows a surviving spouse to still elect “portability” of their deceased spouse’s unused estate tax exemption amount, even if the death occurred in 2011, 2012, or 2013, provided an estate tax return (Form 706) is filed by December 31, 2014.
But filling out the Form 706 to elect portability is the easy part.
The not-so-easy part is making the decision, along with the surviving spouse, whether to elect portability at all, or fund a “Bypass Trust”, or do some of both!
This decision could impact the surviving spouse and his or her loved ones by hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. At the same time, it’s a complex decision that requires an analysis of all these factors:
- Size of the estate at the first spouse’s death
- Assets available to fund a Bypass Trust
- Estimated annual growth rate of assets thereafter
- Estimated inflation adjustment of the estate tax exemption amount
- Life expectancy of the surviving spouse
- Assumed income tax rate of the surviving spouse or other beneficiaries (to maximize the step-up effect on capital gains)
- Plus, non-tax considerations, such as asset protection for the surviving spouse, intended distribution after the surviving spouse dies and particular needs and circumstances of the beneficiaries
This portability analysis needs to be done BEFORE you even file the election. How can you do this analysis as scientifically as possible, and do it quickly (even with the client right in front of you)?
There’s an answer.
