Can my 83 yr old transfer her assets to her children money and home to reduce the tax liability

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
It is not possible to answer this based on the information given.  If you are trying to avoid estate taxes, the money will be drawn back into the estate, if the person dies within 3 years o the gift.  In order to avoid the taxes, the person must give up all indicia of ownership of the asset.  I prefer to let elderly people keep their assets to pay for their own care instead of worrying about taxes.  estate taxes will nt be inucrred unless the estate is over $675,000

What makes up the net value of an estate. Is it only the monies that enter in and out of the estate account

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
For estate tax purposes, this amount would be included in the estate value.  the exemption in New Jersey is any amount  under the total of $675,000.  If the estate is over that amount, estate taxes are due.

How can we administrate an estate when other heir’s will not renunciation their rite to administration.

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
As your probate lawyer can advise you, any heir can apply to the court to administer an estate.  Renunciation of a "rigt to administration" by another heir is not necessary.
