Important changes are on the horizon regarding the federal estate tax exemption. The current generous exemption, allowing you to leave up to $10 million to loved ones without incurring taxes, is scheduled to decrease significantly at the end of 2025.
Here's what you need to know:
💜 History of the Exemption: The estate tax exemption has fluctuated over time. Currently, it's at a historically high level, but could be cut in half come 2026.
💜 Potential Sunset: The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 provided this high exemption, but it may revert back to a lower amount unless Congress intervenes.
💜 Arguments for and against: There are valid reasons both for keeping the current high exemption and for reducing it.
What to Do Now:
While the future of the exemption is uncertain, taking proactive steps can help you navigate either scenario. We recommend you:
💜 Review your estate plan: Let's reassess your current plan, investments, and assets to ensure they align with potential changes.
💜 Work with your advisors: Collaborate with your other trusted advisors for a comprehensive approach.
