Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you're the one who gave the gift, you report it if it exceeds $15,000 per recipient per year.

 

In that case, you'll file Form 709: United States Gift (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return.

 

We don't support Form 709, but you can download it from the IRS website and fill it out per the Form 709 instructions.

 

You have a filing requirement if the gift exceeds $15,000 per recipient, but you don't actually pay gift tax until your lifetime gifts exceed $11.4 million for 2019.
