    For Non-Revocable Trust, the trust income goes to beneficiaries, they are taxed through their tax returns. What about capital gains from the trust, the capital gain tax is higher than individual capital gain tax. Any comment?

  • @charlesvandenburgh7754
    @charlesvandenburgh7754 2 года назад +5

    In New York State, our Irrevocable Trust has it's own identification number and pays taxes to the amount of yearly capital gains. We need to file a separate estate tax form ( State and Federal) besides a personal 1040. Perhaps I didn't understand: Is it the amount of money or just the capital gains that's taxed from what's inside the trust.

    Is money received from a federal and state tax return which was filed on behalf of the trust which is subsequent deposited into the bank account of the revocable trust, is this taxable to the trust even though the tax return is a result of overpaying taxes in the first place? Thank you!

  • @M_B_24
    @M_B_24 3 года назад +5

    But what is so confusing is that a trust doesn’t begin until a death occurs. The way you’re explaining seems more like an investment account and the portion of what the beneficiaries of the trust will be taxed at their ordinary income levels? Is that what you are saying? This video was not very clear to me. I hope you do another one with maybe examples because this is the VERY question I can’t seem to get a clear answer on. What if life insurance goes into a trust? That is after death. That’s what a trust is for correct? Death? Please explain and thanks for these videos!

    @jeffreym3233 2 года назад +2

    As a data point, the trust (irrevocable) for which I am trustee had an 18% tax rate in 2021 despite lots of long term gains. Income distribution deduction caused pass through of tax to the beneficiary. The 3x% rate applies in more rare cases where ordinary income occurs.

    • @Jose-sy1je
      @Jose-sy1je 11 месяцев назад +1

      So you can distribute all the income and then pay the personal tax rate? But long term taxes for trusts should still be around 20% and not 37% if I am not mistaken. What happens if you sell real estate? As a private person you are not taxed on those gains, but a trust would be taxed at the top rate I assume. How can you avoid that?

    If a Grantor Trust is not filed anywhere and it is for Estate purposes, how does the IRS even know you have one unless you report it? If you are getting creative Royalty money or even if you have an LLC, those are all reported on your own TIN anyway, right? Not sure I understand how and at what point the IRS gets involved in a Living Trust except perhaps at death of the Grantor and perhaps second Survivor Grantor named on the Trust... Confusing.

      Like me, you would prefer no tax and get no growth over a potentially large gain taxed at 37%. That means you get 63% of that gain after taxes. The other way you get zero. What say you now?

  • @johndoedoe4840
    @johndoedoe4840 Месяц назад

    Well, a bypass trust requires you use a 1041, and it definitely is taxed higher than ordinary income tax rates. If you had an asset or assets in there that threw off a lot of taxable income, you would be hit much harder than if you were able to use a 1040. That's why it's a good idea to put investments in there that have high appreciation but very little distributed income. Digressing a little, I'm trying to figure out the liklihood of a judge dissolving a bypass trust that is no longer needed and would not get a step up unless something is done. Any thoughts?

      @AthensBlueG35 2 года назад +4

      Any dividends, rental income, or other income generated by, or gains withdrawn from, the trust while the grantor is living and in control of the trust is considered income for tax purposes. There is tax on that income. After the grantor dies, then the assets pass to the beneficiary as an inheritance, and for that there is a federal tax exemption like you mentioned.

    Hey Paul, great information!! Quick question: Understand at the state level each state has different rules and regulations for trusts. When I set up a trust while living in one state and I move to a different state and perish there I assume the state of my death will take precedence. Would it change the eventual execution of the trust to the rules in that state? There are still state inheritance taxes that will need to be paid, correct? Sorry for the deep questions. Thank you for the clear and concise explanation. Wish I had seen this video 2 years ago. Lots to think about.
