Do you know the new guidlines for the Qualified Person Residence trust as of Jan1 2012?Where do I find them?

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
you will not loose it to inheritance tax !  There is no inheritance between a parent to a child.  You may have to pay estate tax if the total amount of your parents estate is over $675,000.  there is a very easy way to double that, to protect $1,350,000.  You should explore various options, a trust for the house, taking advantage of all tax credits, and possibly gifting.  You can call my office for a free consultation.

Identity Theft of Deceased Elderly

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
Identity theft happens this way all of the time !  There are companies that will come to your house or business and shred huge amounts of stuff for a very reasonable price. For example - there is a company called Shred It that will leave you a bin, you put everything in, they come back and shred it for you.  I would recommend shredding everything because a lot of identity theft happens the old fashioned way - by people getting credit card statements or social security numbers through the trash.  Also - many local banks offer days in which you can bring paper to be shredded.  good luck !
