Who Must File. In general. If you are a citizen or resident of the United States, you must file a gift tax return (whether or not any tax is ultimately due) in the following situations. If you gave gifts to someone in 2024 totaling more than $18,000 (other than to your spouse), you probably must file Form 709.
The annual federal gift tax exclusion for 2017 has not changed from 2016 and remains $14,000. If a person makes gifts of $14,000 to 4 different people, none of the gifts are considered taxable by the federal government. Additionally, none of them have to be reported on a federal gift tax return.
As a requirement, gifts exceeding $15,000 must be reported on this form. IRS Audit: Second, the IRS may discover gifts when you or the recipient are audited, by matching transactions reported for certain assets, or because banks are required to report cash transfers in excess of $10,000.
The annual federal gift tax exclusion for 2017 has not changed from 2016 and remains $14,000.
Do I Have to Worry About the Gift Tax If I Give My Son $75,000 Toward a Down Payment? Unless you have given away more than $13.99 million in your lifetime, a $75,000 gift will not trigger the federal gift tax. Using this for a down payment also does not affect the result.

Do I have to pay taxes on a $20,000 gift? You do not need to file a gift tax return or pay gift taxes if your gift is under the annual gift tax exclusion amount per person ($17,000 in 2023). If you do exceed that amount, you dont necessarily need to pay the gift tax.
The lifetime gift/estate tax exemption is $13.99 million in 2025. Couples making joint gifts can double that amount. This exemption has helped affluent families pass along substantial gifts tax-free.
Annual Gift Tax Exclusion: For 2024, each parent can gift up to $18000 to any individual without triggering a gift tax filing requirement. Since both parents are contributing, they can collectively give you $36000 without exceeding the annual exclusion limit.
