About This Course
With a Federal Estate Tax exclusion of over $13.6 Million, often there is not an actual 706 filing requirement. However, the estate tax exclusion is expected to drop by 50% at the end of 2025, and in the case of the death of the first spouse, a portability election will require the filing of the 706.
In addition, the statute of limitations does not run unless a Form 706 is filed. This course will not only cover the nuts and bolts of filing the 706, but further explain certain strategies regarding trust design, portability, and other elections, etc., which become amplified in a fluid estate tax environment.
