Question:

What are the tax implications of making a bequest?

Un regalo de hoy y con una herencia

¿Está pensando en dejar el dinero a una caridad o de beneficencia en su testamento? Esto puede ser una buena manera de dejar un legado al tiempo que ahorran a sus herederos un poco en los impuestos de bienes mediante la reducción del tamaño de su patrimonio gravable. Una cosa a tener en cuenta, sin embargo, es un regalo que hoy también reduce automáticamente su patrimonio.

Si su deseo de reducir su patrimonio al dejar el dinero a una organización benéfica en su testamento le impide hacer donaciones de hoy, recuerde que usted también puede obtener beneficios de caridad de impuestos al hacer el regalo ahora. Si usted está más interesado en ahorrar dinero para sus hijos u otros herederos, un legado en su testamento puede ser la mejor opción. Si se encuentra en una situación financiera que le permite dar ahora y en su testamento, usted puede darse cuenta de los beneficios fiscales para usted ahora y más tarde sus herederos.

Guardar los ingresos y los impuestos sobre bienes

Si desea dar a la caridad de su cuenta del plan de pensiones o IRA, usted puede ahorrar los ingresos y bienes de impuestos al hacer estos regalos a través de su voluntad. Incluso después de su muerte, la persona o que recibe la pensión o de dinero del IRA tiene que pagar impuestos sobre la renta sobre ese dinero a menos que el beneficiario es una organización benéfica.

Si bien ya han proporcionado a los miembros de la familia, un regalo póstumo de la pensión o del IRA a la caridad, tanto reduce su patrimonio y ayuda a reducir los impuestos sobre bienes y evita el impuesto sobre la renta que sus herederos tendrían que pagar al recibir estas cuentas. Esto es, por supuesto, una simplificación de las diversas cuestiones relacionadas con dejar planificado y beneficios fiscales.
