This had been temporarily higher than the previous years when it comes to the amount of exemption on estate and gift tax. This amount for limits on the estate and gift tax exemption is reported to reach up to $5 Million. Not until on January 1, 2013, those amounts had been reported to drop back to $1 Million. More exemption limits or the $5 Million had been extended and said to be made permanent. It has been made possible as a part of the fiscal cliff avoidance legislation. This actually leads to the stability on the field of estate and gift tax planning.
The amount of limits that has been made doesn’t affect everyone. However, the extension of these limits offers opportunities to plan around estate laws and enables people create their vehicles to pass their accumulated wealth on their successors. The Congress passing fiscal cliff legislation serves as an aid to individuals who can pass their wealth to their children or other causes that they want to support.
