We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What is the main purpose of Form 706?

The executor of a decedents estate uses Form 706 to figure the estate tax imposed by Chapter 11 of the Internal Revenue Code. Form 706 is also used to compute the generation-skipping transfer (GST) tax imposed by Chapter 13 on direct skips.

Who must file an estate tax return 706?

An estate tax return (Form 706) must be filed if the gross estate of the decedent (who is a U.S. citizen or resident), increased by the decedents adjusted taxable gifts and specific gift tax exemption, is valued at more than the filing threshold for the year of the decedents death, as shown in the table below.

What is a 706 tax form used for?

Federal Form 706, also known as the United States Estate (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return, is used to report the value of a deceased persons estate and determine the amount of estate tax due, if any. A snapshot of the value of the decedents assets and liabilities is taken on the day of death.

What is the estate exemption for 2013?

The ultimate legislation that was enacted, American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, maintains the $5 million exemption for estate taxes, gift taxes and generation-skipping taxes. The actual amount of the exemption in 2013 is $5.25 million, due to adjustments for inflation.

What are the common mistakes when filing form 706?

At our firm, we frequently encounter these errors that can put families at risk: Not filing Form 706 because the estate falls below the exemption threshold. Incomplete or inaccurate asset valuations that trigger IRS audits. Missing critical deadlines for filing or requesting extensions.

What is the most you can inherit without paying taxes?

While state laws differ for inheritance taxes, an inheritance must exceed a certain threshold to be considered taxable. For federal estate taxes as of 2024, if the total estate is under $13.61 million for an individual or $27.22 million for a married couple, theres no need to worry about estate taxes.

When must you file a 706?

Generally, the estate tax return is due nine months after the date of death. A six-month extension is available if requested prior to the due date and the estimated correct amount of tax is paid before the due date. The gift tax return is due on April 15 following the year in which the gift is made.
