Is a inherited saving account taxable?
Tax rules vary from country to country. So, the question needs to be more specific. Generally speaking, taxes levied on inherited wealth are called estate duties. India, for instance, had a regime of estate duties for a long time, but it was done away with a few years ago. Income Tax is levied on one's income, and if it is a gift one receives, Gift Tax is payable, if the concept of Gift Tax is in the tax canons of a particular country, otherwise Income Tax will have to be paid on the monetary value of the gift, either by the donor or by the recipient. Normally, a threshold is prescribed for the monetary value of the gift, the gift valued above which only attracts tax.
If an adult child gives his parents a monetary gift of 12000 cash will the adult child be allowed to write that off on his tax return?
Its recommended you contact a specialist to help you answer this question, but... Yes, If the adult child files the $12,000 as a monetary gift on his/her tax return, he/she should be able to write some or all of that off on his/her taxes (depending on how much money he/she makes in the year), however, the recipient of that gift would then have to pay additional taxes as result of receiving it (Yes, they tax monetary gifts, they tax everything conceivable by the human imagination). Also, Should the parents fail to file that they received a monetary gift of $12,000, this may result in the adult child being flagged by the IRS for an audit, it may also result in the adult child or his parents being charged with a felony/fraud or tax evasion, this is why you will need a specialist. IE: If the adult child did not actually give the $12,000 to his parents, or they did not receive it as a monetary gift and instead it was a form of payment for some sort of goods and/or service, a car for example - in this situation the adult child should actually be paying additional sales taxes instead of receiving a tax break, or if the parents fail to acknowledge that they received a monetary gift of $12,000 at all, the adult child could face fraud and tax evasion charges. -OR- If the adult child actually did give a monetary gift of $12,000 to his parents, and they received it as a monetary gift, the adult child filed it on his taxes, but the parents did not, they could be charged with tax evasion, and possibly felony fraud, or heavy fines with high interest rates, depending on the situation. Its always a good idea to keep records, in either case, it may be best to just not file it at all, depending on the child's relationship with his parents.
Do monetary gifts need to be reported to IRS?
Really, it depends on whom it's from and even a bit of the circumstances involving it. But, remember the Oprah thing...with the cars....and they had to be reported as income (and tax paid) by the recipient? And the givor has to provide a 1099...etc. Basically, if it's over 600$, there is going to be a reporting requirement, and if it isn't from a family member, there will be a tax requirement...sometimes on the one giivng it a gift tax is imposed. And to be certain, if its from an employer, regardless of the reason claimed, it's taxable as payroll. What I'm trying to say (and relevant to the below), is while gifts (especially between family members) can be structured to be not taxable (or only taxable under gift tax rules to the givor), to either the givor or recipients, I have frequently seen what was considered a gift by the recipient isn't really considered so (and is deemed to be income) under IRS rules. what you call it isn't the thing....what it actually is carries. You can gift up to $11,000 to someone without any tax consequences. If you gift more than that, the giftor must file a Gift Tax Return and pay a gift tax. The tax is typically paid by the giftor, not the receipient.
